Escher Quilt is Finished!

I have been a fan of M.C. Eshcer for years,

finding his drawings and paintings fascinating. 

When I saw this pattern for a quilt that is

"Escher-esque"

I had to make it.

Here is the finished quilt!

The top had been finished for a while,

but I could not decide how to quilt it

or if I should send it to my LAQ to be finished.

 

Finally, I decided to just quilt in the ditch for this one.

The design speaks for itself.

 

This quilt was not as challenging to make as I initially thought

it would be, but it was not mindless sewing,

by any means.

 

The fabrics had to be kept in a very specific order

so the design would come through.

 

Using the Kaffe fabrics gives it so much movement.

 

I'm not sure where this one will end up,

but it's staying with me, at least for a while.

 

I used this fun Kaffe stripe for the backing

and a blue and green dot for the binding. 

There will be another one of these in my future,

I believe!

Happy Quilting!
