Off Kilter Quilt

Lately, my creative energy has been a bit low. Not sure what it is, but I did manage to finish this quilt a few weeks ago.

This quilt started as I took Sarah Bond's Tiger Melon Tiger Moon Class.  I started making those navy and white melon pieces and randomly putting them up on my design wall. I decided I wanted them to be offset in a chain.


as I kept looking at them on the wall, they reminded me of something else. I realized it was Sew Kind of Wonderful's Metro Twist pattern which I had already made. I started making those up for in between the melons and really liked the way it fit!


The quilting was all done by me on my domestic Bernina 2something. Lots of figure 8's and close straight lines.  You can see more of how it looks on the back.


I didn't get any close ups of the binding, but it's a Tula Pink fabric in a shade darker than the background green.
