I finished this quilt last week…

This one was from a class at Quilt University last January. The class was “Shattered Angles” and it was taught by Susan Purney-Mark. I made it [almost] entirely from scraps in my stash. I think I had to buy two fat quarters of black and white fabrics for the “sticks” near the end as I was running out of the ones I had and needed more variety.

I did have to buy batting and backing, but I don’t really count that either.

Here’s a closeup showing the surface texture:

And a closeup of the quilting, which was done using Superior Threads King Tut, which is probably my favorite variegated quilting thread.

The quilting design was inspired by Leah Day, from Day One of her project (!!). I made it my own and had a wonderful time using it for this piece.

Stay tuned…. More projects coming soon. 🙂
