Trellis is finished

last year

I finally got Trellis finished. It’s 49 x 65. I used it to learn/practice ruler quilting. I still need a lot more practice!

Here is some of the quilting:

And how do you like my crazy backing? I had all these solids that I kept skipping over when pulling fabrics, and decided to finally use them.

Woo-hoo for you, pattern looks great and the quilting is remarkable.

You ’done’ good!

I just had another good look at it, thinking the blocks were set on point…but they aren’t. Very clever pattern.

Great-looking quilt, Donna, and a terrific use of scraps. I agree with others that your quilting looks fantastic.

I was thinking about Theresa’s comment regarding whether the blocks are set on point or not. Seems to me that it could be done either way. Setting it on point requires sashing. Setting it straight across requires a lot of planning to get the colors in the correct places. I can’t tell which technique you used. Tell us, please.

Lois, the blocks are squares. There is a large background block in the center. The surrounding strips are color and background sewn in a diagonal. In the picture, the blue in the lower left and turquoise opposite it are one block. They are quick and easy to sew, you just have to make sure the diagonal seams go the right way!

That is a very interesting pattern. I see the blocks now that a looked at picture again. They do appear to be on point...I think I may have to put this pattern on my list!

TY, Donna, your quilting looks great, too!
