SEW KATIE DID/Pantone Pop HST Quilt 

This quilt, Pantone Pop and its color way set off some sort of quilt making chain reaction that has been ongoing for years.

 Pantone Pop was suppose to be a wedding quilt and as I was in the final stages of binding it I visited my friends.  In the year it took me to work on it they had 360’ed their bedroom colors and this quilt would be the clown in the room.  I learned after that from my friend Sandie that’s it’s better to categorize this type of quilt under ‘marriage quilt’ rather than ‘wedding quilt’ because that buys you quilt making the time in the best case senarios.  Regardless, I made another and kept Pantone Pop for myself:)

SEW KATIE DID/Seam Ripper IPA

I started crazing piecing with Pantone Pop’s leftovers and pretty soon I was forming up the lovely middle squares of the quilt above.  I really was in love with this log cabin layout that we had in Quilting Modern and decided that the crazy pieced blocks where perfect for the block’s centers.  Seam Ripper IPA remains to the day one of my favorite quilts in design, color, softness and process.

 

Leftovers from Pantone Pop were far from done , so those half square triangles that didn’t make it in ended up transformed into Psychedelic Baby.  I sold this one at the first Quiltcon and missed it, but guess what?  I had left overs;)

SEW KATIE DID/On Target Quilt

So I ran with them, did some slight modifications and made On Target.  This quilt was a pain in the ass to quilt, but I love it’s design.

SEW KATIE DID:Boxed-In Quilt

Done yet?  Not quite.  Boxed-In happened next and I’m keeping this one as my new couch quilt and workshop sample for my now favorite block to teach.

But I’m done with this color way now.

There’s a few pillows around that I’ll spare you;)

I’m off on retreat with the girlfriends.  So good.  I’m sure Jefe has made some behind the scenes studio work in my absence that I’ll be excited about and will share soon.

Hope your week includes a big holiday vacation at the end of it.  I might not see you next Monday if I can help myself.  Hope you make the most of it too;)

    Love your quilts. Wish I could take one of your classes, but Seattle is a little ways from Waltham, MN. Have your book and am going to get it out and look at it again. Best of luck on your new endeavor!

    All gorgeous. I can see why that one would be a PITA to quilt, but love the results.

    love these all.. wish I lived close enough to take a class. One day I’m going to try and figure out the Pyschedelic Quilt. I know you are done with that color way but do you recall what you used? I know there are some shot cottons in there 🙂 Thanks..

    I think my sister and children would be surprised how much I like your modern quilts as I am a fairly traditional person usually. I think my daughter has influenced me with her style. That’s impressive how you got 4 quilts for that fabric which all look so different.

      Hi Lisa, my studio won’t be ready until mid summer, but I’ll be teaching a paper piecing class at Circa 15 in Kirkland in July 19th. I’ll announce it or you can give them a call anytime. Are you on my newsletter list?

    Gosh your quilts are just beautiful. That Pantone Pop….well I may or may not be just obsessed with it. Okay, I am. 🙂
