It's Cool To Be Square



Welcome to my stop in this Blog Hop hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt.

My entry is the #Interlockedquilt by @broadclothstudio.



The rules for this blog hop were simple: "Make a project that's square shaped or has squares in the fabric."

I knew immediately what I was going to make, Broadcloth Studio released their Interlocked Quilt a few days earlier. The pattern is a modern wall hanging of 24" square, and the design really spoke out to me with the interlocked squares.


I don't have a big supply of solids, but I had the exactly right colors for this project. A light pink background fabric, light blue and dark orange/brick color for the solid squares, and navy for the striped block.

A square quilt in a cool colorway.


I quilted the mini with the walking foot, using masking tape to mark the quilting lines. The quilting was done with 50wt Aurifil thread #2423, a perfect match.


The backing fabric is a great graphic print in matching cool colors.

Thanks to Carol for organizing this great blog hop!


Keep on quilting!
