This quilt is from a Mystery Quilt class Rhona took at Chicago Spring Festival 2009..She was having a hard time finding anything that interested her...So since she had never made a Mystery Quilt that seem to peek her interest...The pre-class instructions said to get a border fabric,a dark background fabric and 3 contrasting fabrics..Rhona bought all the fabric and cut it up for class like they wanted..Although she thought it turned out pretty good..she had one complaint..she doesn't believe she has enough contrast between the background fabric and the narrow dark strips..(In the store the fabric for the dark strips seemed to contrast more with the background than it actually does.) But considering she had no idea what fabrics would be next to each other she has to admit it isn't too bad...Remember this was a Mystery Quilt....Now if she hadn't told me all this I would have never noticed the contrast..Which goes to show the one who makes the quilt and those looking at it doesn't always see things the same way...I love this quilt..and it does speak Spring to The Ol'Blogger
Oops this is Rhona's August UFO....sorry I goofed...oh well it is here and I am leaving it...
