Gridlock Quilt

I love the colors in this quilt. Looking at it reminds me that spring is right around the corner. I finished this one in January, but I didn’t like the snow photos I took of it.

The wind today didn’t allow for such great photos either, but at least the colors are more true to life. Here is the back:Gridlock Quilt

I quilted this with my favorite thread – Aurifil. I used a variegated type for the first time and I loved seeing it work it’s magic on the quilt. Major oops on not getting a detailed shot of the quilting because the thread is very pretty (Aurifil 3920) and variegated is a nice complement to stippling.

On a side note, it feels good to be blogging again! I’ve been in a creative rut lately, but I do have another finish to share soon that I’m really, really excited about. (Really, really! :) )
