The Purple + Teal quilt is finished, and I’m adding it to my list of favorites. I love how it turned out. It’s different than how I imagined it when I started, but I think it’s even better.
I really like the blocks, but I think my favorite part about it is the solid colored negative space around the blocks.
There are four different solids used – Kona Cotton Pansy, Magenta, Eggplant and Michael Miller Cotton Couture Orchid (the pink color).
For the back, I used Eggplant and Orchid because I really liked the contrast between those two colors.
I debated what color thread to use for the quilting, since there are so many different purples used and I had the teal color to contend with as well. Since purple is the dominating color in the quilt, I decided to go in that direction. I found a variegated purple thread and thought that would work best, and I think it did!
Now onto the next project!
