Late last year I decided to join the Build-A-Quilt program by Angela Walters. I had trouble deciding between 2 colorways, so I decided to just do both of them. The first one I've completed is Urban Grid.
What drew me to Urban Grid immediately is the really funky fabric. This is not a palette I would usually pick for myself, but something about it was intriguing to me, so I decided to give it a shot.
I enjoyed receiving fabric in the mail every month and making the blocks a lot. I followed the pattern except for one curved block that I substituted.
The best thing about this Build-A-Quilt is that the layout is so interesting! I really enjoyed the look of all those giant flying geese framing the blocks.
At first I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this quilt, and to be honest I'm still slightly on the fence, but one thing's for sure ... the more I look at it, the more it's growing on me.

That is a really funky mix of fabrics, so of course I'm liking it! I think this one will continue to grow on you. The more I look at it, the more I see. Fun!
ReplyDeleteGreat fabrics, Liz!! Fun layout for a BOM, too!
ReplyDeleteI love those flying geese! That treatment would work with a lot of blocks, wouldn't it? Fun way to make them really stand out :)
