The Green quilt

Even though green is not the dominant color of this quilt, the customer decided to call it the “Green Quilt” — and somehow the name really stayed with it!

This quilt was made using a simple square patchwork layout with 8-inch blocks and a cheerful mix of modern fabrics, mainly from Michael Miller Fabrics. It was quilted edge-to-edge on a diagonal square grid with lines spaced approximately 3 inches apart.

This quilt was a custom commission and had already been sold before this post was published.
