Quilt: Meshed Gears

Meshed Gears

     This is my original sketch made into a pieced quilt for my sister. I tie quilt my winter quilts because they are done with 1 1/2" batting.  The fabric is thrift store finds. I usually decide what colors I want when I'm wandering around the store. The design and quilt are mirror  images. This is all pieced. The quilt was completed in February 2012. It took about a month from design to finished quilt.

     The medallion design was done while sitting in a college speech class. It seems some of my best designs happen when my attention is split.
