Colorways by Vicki Welsh

I really enjoy quilting on the longarm. I find it really relaxing to be in the basement by myself,  listening to a book and quilting the afternoon away. The only stress I have is figuring out how to quilt a quilt. I’m just not creative at quilting design.

The house quilt has been no different.  I wanted to do something “light custom” but didn’t want it to take too long. As of Sunday, I was thinking of a bunch of different motifs for the houses. But I didn’t want to take away from the fun fabrics, and I didn’t want it to take forever.

This is what I came up with. It’s relatively easy, and I can use lots of different thread colors 

I only have to do a few marks, and I’ve worked out the optimal quilting path.

Here are 2 blocks side by side. I think I’m going to like this just fine.

I’ll get back to it today after a chiropractor visit and going to vote. I think I’ll also dye some quilt backs today.
