Some fabrics just cry out "don't cut me". I bought this fabric when I had the idea to do a landscape quilt because it has so many textures from nature ... leaves and grasses and rocks and mountain peaks. I never made the landscape quilt.

| The strong horizontal graphics on this fabric whispered in my ear "don't cut me, I'll make a wonderful modern quilt". I agreed. |
 |
| This is the strip with the mountain peaks. They remind me of the Flatirons outside of Boulder Colorado. |
 |
| A strip of circles seemed just the thing to add. Each square is 8.5" finished with a roughly 7" circle. The circles are pieced which is my favorite way to do a circle ... they go fairly fast and always perfect. |

| This quilt is for my Etsy shop and I made it specifically for the man in someone's life. It's strong and earthy and straight forward. https://www.etsy.com/listing/152770901/modern-couch-lap-quilt-great-guy-quilt?ref=shop_home_active And a PS to the girls, it's a pretty quilt, it'll look nice in your living room :} |
