It's a Hoot!

I have put aside the Kansas Dugout Quilt whilst I consider what fabric I will use for the missing side triangles ~ put aside, but definitely not out of mind or sight!  You know I usually like to finish a quilt before I start the next.

It's a Hoot by MoMo for Moda
..
But I am happy to make an exception this time; and thought it would be a good time to start working on a Custom Quilt order that came to fruition last week.


My customer's vision is very much a reflection of my own style of quilts and what's more the fabric of choice is It's a Hoot by MoMo for Moda, which so happens is already part of my stash (see Sunday Stash #78).


I spent yesterday cutting the fabric and playing around with the layout, and completed the quilt top late this afternoon.  This was the perfect easy piecing project to follow the Kansas Dugout Quilt from earlier this week with its bias edges and fiddly complicated seams.


I love how this quilt top has turned out!  The colors and printed designs from this single fabric collection all work so well together that no other fabrics were added. 


Aah! Simple and perfect.
