I wrote before about how to pick colors for a quilt. I just did a new one yesterday, and I wanted to show you a bit better what I was trying to explain previously.
So, several years ago, I found this material. It was designed as a pillow, with one image on the front, and a different image on the back. The store had three different ones - a wold, an eagle and a tiger. You've seen the wolf - the Wolf in Grey quilt features one of those panels. I'll show you the tiger today.
This is a close up of the center of the panel.
I pulled material that I had, which incorporated the white, orange, brown and greens.
I laid the materials on the floor in several different ways, until I found the best layout - in this case, a simplified version of the log cabin.
Once I found the best way, I sewed them together. This was the result.
Now he needed sashing. I went through several different materials before I decided on these. To get a good look, I just folded the materals and layered them to see how they would work together.
The brown strip at the bottom was a piece of the bias tape that I was considering.
Once decided, I cut, sewed and such, until the quilt was complete.
Here's the final result!
