Treble and Bass

Last week I finished up this quilt called Treble and Bass in the book All About Strips by Susan Guzman.  A fun quilt to use a variety of prints in. I am really stuck on this color combination of blue, aqua and lime green. Using white as the background really makes it pop.

This quilt is listed in my Etsy shop now.



 I longarm quilted it on my Nolting Funquilter with a freehand allover pattern I call fan blades. Glide thread in a light aqua and Hobbs 80/20 were used.

Here you can see the 'in progress' work while it is on the frame.


We must not forget a look at the pieced backing. I so love print backings and I love pieced ones that add more interest to our quilt.


I hope everyone has a great week planned and are very productive!

Linking with several of the fun parties on my left side bar.  Grab a cup of coffee and grab some inspiration= multi tasking!

  6. That color combo is my absolute favorite. I have to force myself to not make all my quilts those colors! :) The quilting looks so great, and the backing is as fun as the front. I really like this quilt! Thanks so much for sharing it on MCM!

  8. Well that baby won't last long in your Etsy shop I would hedge a bet! I love that colour combo; it was my theme for last year ha, and kind of still is this year! This year for some reason I keep finding blue green and purple coming together...great pattern and might have to adapt it for a H2H quilt!
