Earlier this month I had time booked on PCQ's long arm and I was able to quilt the Referee Stripe top that I pieced at retreat in July.
Yes, it's bold, wild and crazy, and very vibrant. I love how this quilt turned out!
The piecing design using half-hexies made of strips combined with a bold referee stripe was inspired by something I saw on Pinterest attributed only to "Kathy." Thanks, Kathy whoever-you-are, for the inspiration. I already have another striped fabric in mind to make the same pattern.
The back is a combination of black and white prints from my stash, cobbled together.
This quilt will eventually go to a local family services agency where it will be perfect for a teenager. But first, I'm going to hold onto it and display it in PCQ's quilt show in the winter, then donate it afterward.

I didn't see the hexagons until you mentioned them. Very striking!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun quilt. Brilliant use of striped fabric. Wait, I'm assuming the fabric is a stripe and you didn't piece all of those stripes!
ReplyDeleteVery bold and bright. Congrats on such a fun finish.
