In my Twelve Month Quilting Bee, I started our group off and sent off a bunch of Ty Pennington's Impressions line and was so pleased with what came back to me! I had them all do wonky log cabins and they were so fun to make and receive back!
I had the quilt top finished a couple weeks ago, but wasn't sure what I wanted to do with the back. I ended up settling with the cheapest option and went with some Kona Black... the same as is on the borders.
Here is a closeup of the quilt top and a few of the blocks. I've really gotten a lot of compliments on just the quilt top. I like it too.
My mom did the quilting on her long arm machine and I think the pantograph that we chose is perfect for this. She used a varigated chartreuse and yellow thread but it kind of looked the same color. Regardless, I think the light thread on the black is really striking and beautiful!
Here is a closeup of the quilting. You really can see it all so well. It looks awesome!
So, big thanks to my swap buddies. I hope I can provide them with as nice of blocks as they provided me.
