I made a little progress on Food Quilt #3 over last weekend. The center is now done. My next step is to put a thin (not sure how thin) black border around the center and then attach the piano key border to the black border. I have to decide if I want to use a solid back or a white on black. If I use the latter, I want it to have a subtle white design on it.
You may have also noticed that I have broken the bounds of the design wall and the quilt is laying on the floor. Crazy, I know!
I love the blue in this! I don’t think I would have thought of it, but it truly sets off the warm toned food fabrics.
It is a little different layout than the others. I usually ask the kids what color they like and then I might or might not use it. I did this time. I’d like to try this quilt with oranges.
Oh, I like your double sashing & 4-patch cornerstones. The B&W & blues really make them pop and gives it some depth. I had a hard time imagining a food quilt, but this is interesting. I like this idea, but I will probably do one without the food and just use my stash…Thanks for the inspiration…I’ll add this idea to my list.
Thanks, Penny, for your kind words! It is a good theme quilt for boys.
