A scrappy strip quilt :: scrappy in the sense that I have used a variety of fabrics :: less scrappy is the layout with a regular 2 inch wide strip throughout. Perhaps not strictly low volume either, although it does read that way to me.
I am pleasantly surprised with how well these very different fabrics all play together and convey a sense of calm and a stillness despite the mix of pattern and color. Some of the feature fabrics used include:
- Sketchbook in Cream - Alchemy Organic by Amy Butler
- Ladylike in Tea Green - Carnaby Street by Pat Bravo
- Miss Daisy in Shasta Pink on Lace - Glamping by Mary Jane Butters
- Moroccan Lattice in Ebony - Mod Basics - Michael Miller
Again I have quilted the quilt with a straight lines but this time a set of horizontal lines just 1 inch apart and a set of 2 vertical lines running edge to edge through every second strip of fabric. For the quilt back I have used Pam Kitty Love Floral Bouquet yardage which is perfect for this quilt and is a fabric that I will need to re-stock as I rather adore it.
