Blogger's Quilt Festival: Mustang

I took one of my dearest quilt friends out for another photo shoot today.


 ...And I decided to take Mustang, too.


I thought that the first round of pictures I took for this quilt out on an old barn (here's the link) were great, but I think I like these better. This quilt was made for a day like today.


I also got some feedback from the original post that a picture of the block would be appreciated. I am happy to oblige!


The final stats on the quilt:
Each block is 18.5"
The dimensions are 55" x 72"
Quilted in straight line with Aurifil 1147
Finished in August, 2014

Linking up with the Blogger's Quilt Festival, large quilt division.

  11. Wow, this quilt is really amazing! Those blocks look time consuming but the effect is so striking! Love that it is a traditional style but the fabrics and colors really make it so modern. Voting it as one of my favorites for sure.
