Modern Guild Strips - the quilt I didn’t win!

Kelly decided that the lotto block for the Modern Guild would be a 6.5 x 18 inch strips made of neutrals from black to light grey. It needed just a sliver of color in each strip.  It was a very popular block that a lot of people wanted to win.  I made two strips.

And still didn’t win.

So I decided to make my own.

I started sewing the strips on Tuesday.




Made more on Thursday.



And more on Friday.


Last night I began to sew the strips together.


I love the subtle bits of color.  As I sewed strips, I came up with some variations in the pops of color that was non-traditional.......if you can call this at all traditional.

We went to Hammond today to meet Patsy and Stacy......and talk about the aliens kidnapping people in the National Parks.

So I won't be going to any National Parks any time soon., right?

  1. I like your version a lot! How big is it now and how big are you going to make it? The little pops of color make it much more interesting.
