When I dropped my Calendar Cascade quilt top off with Dionne @dinglebobbins for long-arming, I didn't really expect to be back so quick with a quilt finish to share! In less than two weeks, she'd used a lovely Fil-Tec Glide polyester thread in Clover 60577 to quilt a Modern Twist X3 design, and my quilt was ready to pick up!
Just as a reminder, Calendar Cascade was designed for our 2025 Seattle MQG Block of the Month (AKA BOM) by guild-member Naomi te Wildt @quiltingnaomi. My original fabric pull consisted of Kona cottons in Emerald, Fern, Honey Dew, Jade Green, Julep, Lagoon, Pacific, and Pistachio. In case you've missed my posts on this quilt, note to count how many shapes are in a specific row and that will tell you what month it's for - one for January, two for February, etc. Thus the design's name, Calendar Cascade.
At 70" x 92", this finish feels really big to me, and I'm so grateful Dionne was able to help me get it finished. Bound in Kona Emerald, I love seeing how the quilting undulates across the front and that pieced quilt back.
