Petals
TA DA ! Here is my ‘Scrappy Summer 2015 #1 quilt top ‘Petals’ all completed. I wanted to make a simple quilt that would show off the floral fabrics but still make a statement. I had originally planned for it to be set straight (just to be different) but the quilt demanded to be put on point. What’s a girl to do! It did make for some very long diagonal seams. I love the look of the background grey fabric – it allows the floral fabrics to shine.
Here is my inspiration. The photo is of Kaffe Fasset’s Diagonal Madness quilt. Same but different and definitely not as busy.

Micki, I love your scrappy yet cohesive quilt. The grey totally complements those vibrant colors. You are extremely talented! Take care, Mary.

Lovely! I just had a quilt refuse borders. Sometimes we just have to let those pushy quilts decide what’s best. ;P I love how the grey makes the petals pop!

Beautiful! I really love this, and the grey certainly is an effective background to all your scrappy petal colour!
