Even though I haven’t shown you the rest of the quilting on this quilt, I just can’t wait to show you the finished product!!!
This quilt has been in process for several years but I only worked on it at guild retreats, and at least two of those retreats, it never came out of the box!!
So….I am thrilled to present……

The color placement of the red squares did exactly what I was hoping and I love the diagonal strips that show up in the design.
AND, the quilting made a huge difference…..

I had planned the circles around the red squares, but the other “phantom” circles took me by surprise!! I LOVE when that happens!!
I had hoped that this quilt would use most of my 2.5-inch squares, but alas there are still a LOT left….

So, now I am thinking about ANOTHER 2.5-inch square quilt and it is starting like this……

One reader has suggested that I may need to turn my theme from “Summer of the Scraps” to….

Keep coming back for more!!

I love the finished project! Those red squares are so impactful.
