ABOUT THIS QUILT:

The NY Beauty Circle of Flying Geese Pattern
 by Janice Ryan of Better Off Thread
Pattern available at Craftsy.

Foundation Paper Pieced - Finished size: 22 inches x 22 inches.

Color Wheel: Fat Eighth Bundle from Surly Sheep
Background fabric: Something I picked up from Joann's!
Backing fabric: Kona Cotton Sold in Bone from Fresh Modern Fabric
Binding fabric:  Essex Yarn Dyed Linen in Black by Robert Kaufman


I should also mention that I ruined two ironing board covers at our quilting guild making this quilt.  Only one was mine. I should no longer be allowed to use irons that don't pop up on their own.



Thanks for looking!
Janelle

    That is a beautiful quilt! I have made several quilts, but nothing that unusual. It really makes a statement!

      Thank you so much, Karen! It's really outside the box for me too, and... I am staying outside and doing a lot of things that are going to be a bit different. I like it!

    I think it is stunning; I remember you were not so crazy about the print background, but once you got the quilting done, it makes all the colors POP! Excellent job Janelle

    Wow, Janelle!!! This is gorgeous. What a perfect spot for it. Having never quilted, I am more than a little bit envious.

    I don't quilt. But that doesn't mean I can't appreciate how beautiful and stunning this quilt is! The background fabric is perfect to feature all those yummy colors on top. It's a great contrast that makes you feel happy inside!!
