Gatsby – for Iris and Mawuena

14 06 2012

This quilt is my take on a design by Jean Nolte published in Fons & Porter 2008.  A king sized quilt for a modern young couple to celebrate their wedding.   It was easy to piece, with my own choice of muted colors.  I added a multi-banded mitered border to give it a traditional touch.  Quilting it on my home machine was a real challenge.  I utilized the tips I learned from an on-line quilting course by Ann Petersen entitled “Quilting Big Projects on a Small Machine”.  A life saver!
