100 Days – Week of Techniques – Featured Quilt 2

by

Betty of Betty Ninja made this beautiful modern cross quilt in vibrant yellow and gray.

Here’s what Betty had to say about her quilt:

“My yellow cross quilt combines everything I love about quilting- improv, modern patterns, bright colors, and non-fussy-ness.

I fell in love with the cross pattern for its simplicity and graphic-ness. I also love how easy it is to make it more improv by just cutting on a slight angle, shortening up one side, or using the colored fabric in a different part of the block.

I’ve always been attracted to quilts that include just a few bright colors and this yellow is screaming bright yellow. It’s so funny how the hot pinks, electric yellows, and electric blues of my childhood are popular again!”

Do you want to make a cross quilt of your own? Betty has a great tutorial on her blog.

    Very cool quilt. Isn’t it funny how the dogs are always first to sit on the quilt. Mine does it all the time!
