Wonky Pods (Blogger's Quilt Festival)

My entry in the Modern Quilts category for the Blogger's Quilt Festival is Wonky Pods.  I made this quilt for my youngest daughter, who has recently moved to a big girl bed.  This quilt was the first time I had free-motion quilted a bed size quilt, and I absolutely love the texture of the all-over meandering - I will definitely do this style of quilting again.

You can read more about this quilt here.  This quilt was mostly inspired by Elizabeth Hartman's work.

QUILT STATS:
Finished Size: 56" x 85"
Pattern: Wonky Pods - the pattern will soon be available in my Craftsy store
Fabric: a "curated" charm pack from my stash, Moda Bella Azalea for the pod borders, Moda Bella Ivory for the background.
Backing: vintage sheet (100% cotton) from my collection
Binding: Michael Miller Ta Dot
Pieced and Quilted: By me, on my domestic sewing machine- my first time FMQ meandering!

Thank you Amy for hosting the Blogger's Quilt Festival, there are so many inspiring quilts!

Radiant Explosion (Bloggers Quilt Festival entry)

My entry for the Original Design category in this year's Blogger's Quilt Festival is Radiant Explosion - which placed 3rd in the Pantone 2014 Radiant Orchid Quilt Challenge. 

This is my own design and is entirely improv pieced - the original post for this quilt is here, and if you are interested in how I constructed the quilt you can read all about it here.

The quilt is approximately 50" x 60".
