Horizon

Every year I try to go to Quilt Festival. 

Simply amazing.

Everywhere you look.

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.

Inspirational on every level.

And every time I think up something new I want to try.

And it's less than an hour's drive. 

This year I left dreaming of quilting fabulousness.

(Not a word, I know.)

"Horizon" (Kate Spain for Moda) was the next fabric on the cutting table.

I went with a very simple modern design with lots of negative space for the quilting to share the spotlight.

I highly recommend this sort of quilting. 

VERY fun.

I didn't want this project to end. 

At 36" x 37", I felt like this project ended too soon. 

I need to just start another one. 

It has a random assortment of free motion feathers, flowers, vines, paisleys, swirls, and any other design I could think of to quilt doodle. 

Granted it did take a lot of hours. 

But they were some happy hours! 

And more pics of the quilting. 

Pinwheels!

This one (finished it yesterday and somehow took this long to take pictures and post...) used almost the entire remains of my stash of American Jane Wee Play.

While a small part of me LOVES eliminating fabric from the stash, another part wishes I had endless quantities of my favorites.

And these are definitely favorites.

Ahh, these fabrics are just so beautiful. And they needed to be pinwheels.

They are just so perfectly rainbow bright... but not too bright (and no girly purples or pinks).

And seeing as I don't have a boy this one is up for grabs in the shop.
