Its been a while...


And this is what I have been working on. I designed this quilt for my nephew Justin for a graduation gift. He is off to college in September to Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. Justin is a "Ralph Lauren" kind of guy, and does not like a lot of fussy patterns in fabric choices, so I decided to go with solids. His highschool colors are blue and white and blue just screamed out for some yellow. So I went to Keepsake Quilting in Center Harbor (how convenient is it that its just down the road from my summer place) and bought two packages of quarter yard blue solids. I think the name was "Blue Moon". And I designed the quilt using EQ5. Its a simple rail fence block that I manipulated to make the more graphic design. I am using "black" to separate the blocks, and will be adding borders. Check back and see where it goes.

I love this quilt design and I've flagged it as a potential future project! I think it would look lovely in Liberty
