Singleton

Ok, this was really fun. July's Mighty Lucky Quilting Club challenge with Cheryl Arkison was "One Fabric, One Quilt," and from the first block I enjoyed it immensely!


It was actually quite serendipitous, as I'd been thinking of trying a quilt using just one fabric. It was fun to try that using Cheryl's guidance, including her handy fabric-selection and design tips. I chose to make just a few sets of the suggested quarter square-triangle blocks and then filled in around them to create a basic design while still letting the overall piece do its own thing.


Quilting was done with Aurifil 50wt #2021 (Natural White) and I really enjoyed it, making a couple of spirals, and other random patterns, all trying to highlight those stripes.


As with all of my Mighty Lucky challenges, this one finished at 17" square - small in size maybe, but not in experience. Lots to think about with this one, and plenty to consider in the future.

Linking up with Finish It Up Friday!
