Colorblocks 2 (2003)

I love to explore the interplay of color and pattern. Colorblocks 2 is an adaptation of a pattern by Sandy Bonsib. It is also a follow-up quilt to Colorblocks, which I completed in 1990. Although this is a simple design, the interesting part of this quilt is how the colors react with each other. I saw Bonsib’s version on Simply Quilts and thought it would be interestng to try with a black background and in solid & tone-on-tone fabrics. I plan to follow it up with a version in silks. Colorblocks 2 was magnificently machine quilted with feathers by Colleen Granger. It received an Honorable Mention in the Marin Quilt and Needle Arts show in 2003.
