Just Bricks Progress

I have made a lot of progress with the Just Bricks quilt that I pieced last week.

Just Bricks - quilt measures 51 inches x 66 inches

I have added some quirky pieced borders on  the left and right hand side of the quilt top.  The bottom of the quilt now appears to have a broken continuation of that same border.   No border at the top of the quilt.

The back of the quilt is also pieced using an Amy Butler print from the Love range of fabrics (Bali Gate in Grass), as well as a Lotus print (Wallflower in Cherry) as feature prints.

This is the biggest quilt that I have quilted myself and I was pleasantly surprised at just how well it maneuvered under the arm of my sewing machine.  Quilted with straight vertical lines, and some horizontal lines to give the impression of a border along the top of the quilt and more definition to the border along the quilt bottom.

The binding is another stripe fabric from the Rouenneries range by Moda.  It was prepared and attached to the quilt just yesterday.  

I am really pleased with the finished look of this quilt; the fabrics all work well together and the quilting has added a further modern and finishing touch to the quilt.   A really simple quilt where the fabrics are allowed to make a subtle statement of their own.

This quilt can now be found for sale in my Etsy Store.
