Periodicity
Periodicity is a quilt designed by Cheryl Brickey of Meadow Mist Design. The pattern is so graphic and the Kona solids so vibrant, the minute I saw it, I knew I had to make it!
I was quite excited to quilt this because blue background means I can use blue thread. I use a light yellow thread about 90% of the time, so it's very exciting to use another color. Another reason I pulled this quilt out is that I was just dying to use one of my favorite designs that I hadn't done in a long time: the wavy design.
Besides the waves that encompass most of the quilt, I also used a Greek tile design and a ribbon candy.
I didn't want to quilt all over the foreground stripes, so I echoed them minimally and echoed that same effect in the background.
Sometimes a quilt asks to be quilted, and sometimes I just really want to do a design and picked the quilt best suited for it. This is the latter case, and I really love the final look!

Another cool finish, Liz! All the quilting designs are so fun, but I really like that wavy one!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, your quilting just brings this quilt and design to life, Liz. And I love the way you overlap your ribbon candy a bit, I'll have to try that out sometime myself!
ReplyDeleteSpectacular. I had seen that pattern of Cheryl's before and it is a great one.
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous! I love that you quilted the background more than the accent colors. The back is just as interesting as the front.
ReplyDeleteYour quilting on this one is smashing. Such a beautiful work.
