Make it Modern Challenge Quilt

A few months ago, the Rhode Island Modern Quilt Guild issued a "make it modern" challenge.  Our task was to take something from traditional quilting and update it for the modern aesthetic.

Here's my project:





I updated flying geese with modern colors, a wonky layout, and some punchy sass. This was my first time trying a different kind of quilting - an overall pattern with a section where something different is going on: the little rebel goose who is flying away from the pack has her own trajectory of quilting lines.

My favorite part of this quilt: definitely the black and white fabric.  I love how it looks as a binding.  And I have more!
