"Twisted Up" Beginner's Guide to Free-Motion Quilting

I'm super excited to share "Twisted Up" today! "Twisted Up" is another pattern that is featured in my book, Beginner's Guide to Free-Motion Quilting. This quilt was originally made in purple and green, so we thought it would be fun to see it in totally different colors. 

Thanks so much to my aunt Ilene Peterson for piecing this version of "Twisted Up".

"Twisted Up"
80"x80"
Two tone-on-tone prints and a plain white background play up this quilt's bold design. It would be great made with any two prints and a contrasting solid. Simple piecing with strips creates the illusion of interlinked frames. 
In the book, Beginner's Guide to Free-Motion Quilting the quilt features machine quilting patterns, "Clams" and "Swirls". 
This black and red version I decided to machine quilt an all over pattern, I thought it would be fun to share that not all quilts need to be custom machine quilted. 


Unsigned copies are also available @ Fat Quarter Shop or on Amazon.
