Fall 2011 Bloggers' Quilt Festival

Presenting my entry in the Fall 2011 Bloggers' Quilt Festival from amyscreativeside.com!  I've chosen to submit my Central Park Moda Bake Shop Ritzy Cracker Quilt because it is so bright and cheerful, not to mention it was a breeze to whip up.  I quilted this using all straight line quilting, which was a new area for me.  Previously, I'd only free motion meandered because I'm a type A++ and if a line isn't ruler-straight, I want to rip it out and start over!  For this one however, I let myself relax and I think it turned out great.  It is perfect for the chillier nights we've been having lately.

    The square quilting in the squares looks so crisp! This block is so simple but such a good one.

    I can't fmq because I want it all planned out before I start.

    beautiful quilt - love the kate spain fabric and i also am a fan of the straight line quilting...sometimes when i fmq i get it all over the place and it looks like a two year old went crazy with a crayon for the first time! straight line is much more organized =)

    thanks for sharing your quilt though! =)
