Pressure Drop Finish!


I blogged more than two months ago about starting a quilt I was calling Pressure Drop, based on a variation of the Drunkard's Path layout. After a few delays, I finally "finished it up"!


(I had a lot of fun putting patterns and colors together... and using up a couple of "ugly" or just plain difficult fabrics)


In a couple of places, I switched up the background and foreground:


For the back I used the Palette Builder to identify the Bella Solid that matched the best, "Mauve" (though it might be better called "Thistle"):


I tried some fashion quilt photography (wheelbarrow, asters, quilt):


I like asters, bees, monarchs better:
