The quilt top that I finished is Cobblestones from Alissa Haight Carlton's book, Modern Minimal. I've called mine Swedish Cobblestones because I've used some Stockholm fabric by Robin Zingone in mine. As with all the quilts in Alissa's book, the original was made using all solid fabrics. I decided to use a few pieces of these fabulous prints. I bought half yard pieces so I still have quite a bit left for another quilt.
Red and pink is one of my favourite colour combinations. The improv panel in the centre was time consuming to piece but so effective. The rich pinks are so gorgeous.
I still have to trim the threads off my Step in Time, and bind it. Tomorrow at our Sunday Stitchers day we are making a large overnight bag - I've cut out my fabric so I'm hoping I can sew most of it tomorrow. I'm also still eyeing another pattern from Modern Minimal that I am itching to start. It really is a beautiful and very practical book which I recommend for everyone interested in quilting.
