 I'm nearing the end of the Maine quilt top so will need another project to do after that one and this is going to be it. I picked this palette because it will match the guest bedroom and that's where this quilt is going. It all started with the fabric in the middle.  This is the center fabric and is one of the Galaxy fabrics. I dyed the gradient (for borders) and the 3 solids to match this fabric. If you ever want fabrics to match one of the fabrics in the shop I can do that for you!  The pattern is going to be Antelope Canyon. You can see on the bed in the photo that the quilt just covers the top of the bed. That's why I'm adding the gradient border. I need a wide overhang to hide the sheets and mattress.
For now I'm just working on some color options in EQ so I won't be cutting fabric for a few weeks. I'll try to share the color layout options next week. I could easily see myself making more than 1 of these quilts. 1/24/2018 11:20:31 am
I love that pattern too. I think your color palette will be very elegant.

Antelope Canyon reminds me of the Labyrinth quilt pattern. I think I saved it somewhere, but I'll never be able to find it.

That is such a cool looking quilt! I can't wait to see how you interpret the quilt in your fabrics. I would have to muster a lot of patience to make one myself, but I know something like this is right up your alley! 1/25/2018 08:43:52 am
Is this the Pinwheel fabric? I love how you dyed the fabrics to go with it - especially the gradient for the borders. I think this will be quite a stunning quilt.

I’ve seen this quilt on a couple of blogs and it is a beauty. Your fabrics will be perfect!

ooooh - I can imagine that quilt in that fabric and it will be amazing! The pattern looks like an optical illusion and looks like it might be a challenge to piece (sez I - a non sane quilter).

That IS a very interesting pattern. I may have to draft it up in EQ too. Comments are closed.
