“Positive Space” Quilt – and Pattern!

I am so excited to announce my First Ever Quilt Pattern! 

For those of you who have been following my blog or flickr account, you may know this quilt better as “Dusty Springfield” from the Kona Solids Challenge – or “Patti Page” from the Tangerine Tango challenge.   However, I don’t think I can legally attach these lovely singers to my humble quilt pattern, so we’re going to go ahead and call it “Positive Space” from now on.   Why so much focus on the negative spaces in modern quilts?  Let’s focus on these little plus signs and keep positive  : )

If you are interested in buying this pattern, it can be found in my etsy shop as a PDF download ($8) or as a printed pattern ($9).   The pattern includes cutting charts, color images, and information for making a Throw through King sized quilt-top.

You can also purchase this very quilt from my shop. 

Quilted using straight lines, framing the squares.

Many, many thanks goes to the Ann Arbor Modern Quilt Guild – and especially Brenda of Pink Castle Fabrics – for being SO encouraging about going ahead and making this pattern to sell.   What an extraordinarily lucky woman I am to have this amazing group of talented, quilty friends.

Simple pieced back, using some strips of Kona Ash and large pieces of FS10 GEOMETRIC by Fabric Freedom.
