Tile Tango Quilt

This a a client's quilt, she pieced this quilt for her daughter to raise money for a triathlon she is training for.

When a quilt top is angular, I like to use a curvy quilting design to soften the top. There were floral fabrics, so I chose the pattern Rhapsody by Jodi Beamish. I have used this pattern twice now, so I am getting faster with it.

For the top I used a variegated cream thread, the variegated thread adds a nice depth to the quilting. The back has a matching cream.

Here is the whole top....

One block....
Background square....


Border fabric....




Next week I am beginning a large modern wedding ring quilt. Will take me a couple of weeks, so take care and I will update in a couple of weeks!
Happy Quilting!
