Quilt made from half square triangles in shades of blue-green, ranging from deep teal to pale aqua and quilted with giant seaweed motifs

You know how repeating a word makes it lose meaning and seem nonsensical? That's how I feel about color after trying to explore it. "What is turquoise and teal?" I don't know. But here's the quilt I came up with.

I made these back before the pandemic started when I was teaching myself how to do paper piecing. I think my latest plan for them is to turn them into a pride table runner. We shall see. It’s only been like 8 years. :-)

Our local quilt guild is making quilts for our police officers. We donated our quilting services for a few. Loving the circles. #modernquilting

Quilt with ochre color palette ranging from dark brown to cream using abstract organic shapes that look like rocks

Quilt with ochre color palette ranging from dark brown to cream using abstract organic shapes that look like rocks

I keep calling this my "Rock Quilt" in my head. I assigned myself a design challenge to use: (1) a non preferred color palette; (2) larger scale shapes; and (3) improvise curves. It's about 60"x70", but feels like a little sketch.

Had fun rearranging my arrow blocks. I'm thinking I will go with the medallion look, filling the center with a black square. Thoughts? 🧵✂️

I’m so happy with how this table runner turned out. It’s begging to be finished. I’m still deciding if I’m going to quilt it on the sewing machine, or go with the long arm. What would you do? #quiltsky #modernquilting

I really like how this block turned out with the fabric choices. Doesn’t the star look like it is “spacey”? Just belongs in the universe!

Do you have tips for requesting and working with pattern testers? In the next few months I’ll be ready to share my pattern with a select few to test and am curious on best practices.
