Green Onions |
I
had spring on my mind and a song in my head while working on this
little quilt. Remember the cool instrumental number by Booker T and
the M.G.'s? What a classic!
The
blocks were quickly cut with Accuquilt 3 1/3” tumbler die, using
colors of clear navy, spring green and crisp white prints. I randomly
arranged them in rows, then framed with a subtle white and grey
print. Single tumblers were appliqued onto the navy corners. I
outline quilted each piece in white, using a straight stitch.
Backing is a diagonal navy and green floral print.
Green
Onions is 30” x 36” finished size. It reminds me of sunny
spring Saturdays, cruising around with my mama in her '62 Pontiac
Catalina, with the windows open and the radio cranked up. Gotta love
those memories!
Music
is the way
our
memories
sing
to us
across
time.
