Yesterday was the last class of our year long Modern Block class. We introduced students to 21 blocks, many techniques and the modern quilt movement. I can't believe its April already and its now over.
This is the final block - "House on a Hill". It was the introduction to raw edge applique.
I ended up using this block as my label for the quilt. I wrote the particulars in the space under the house.
I decided to make up two different settings for my 21 blocks and make a two sided quilt.
This is what I came up with for one side:
And this is the second side - my favorite setting!
I used Kona Navy for my background and used up some scraps for the binding. I had a local machine quilter, Shelly Nolte, quilt it for me with an all over pattern. I used a wool batt which gives it a bit more loft than normal. I really love it.

It's a wonderful quilt Cindy! I love the double sided nature of it- both sides are great! And using a navy blue is a great alternative to black!
