I know, I know.....look at the juvenile colors.....not me, you say.....well I thought so as well. But I had purchased the two main fabrics years ago with nothing in mind other than I like them. Of course I only bought 1 yrd. cuts so the block choices were limited. I chose the "stack-n-slash" method so that I could get a good blending of all the colorful fabrics. As I finished the quilt and turned to thoughts of the border, all I had left was a couple of pieces of the striped fabric....I had seen several quilts that finished with unequal borders or off centered borders so I took those ideas and ....WaLa! I named the quilt "So Juvie" because it reminded me of something a pre-teen to teen would appreciate.
Here is another embroidery pattern from my new Janome.......I'm thinking about making another quilt.
Wow! those are strong colors, but together they make a great quilt! I've never tried that method of creating locks like that before, and it looks like fun to try!
ReplyDeleteI love "So Juvie". Love the colors and the free style design. Very nice.
