I’ve been working on another circle quilt – this one is for the VMQG Modern Mini Showcase<\/a>\u00a0at the upcoming\u00a0Vancouver Quilters\u2019 Guild Quilt Show<\/a> in October.\u00a0\u00a0 Our goal for the display is to put on a beautiful showcase of Modern Mini Quilts. Modern quilting is a new concept for lots of folks and this is a great opportunity to share our work and educate viewers about modern quilting.\u00a0 All our quilts will be made from solid fabrics only and will have a maximum perimeter of 80 inches.<\/p>\n

I used some of my favorite colors in an asymmetrical circle design.\u00a0\u00a0 My quilt is 20 x 20 inches.\u00a0 I stitched it with vertical lines, spaced irregularly.\u00a0 Some of the quilted lines are very close together – referred to as matchstick quilting – often used by modern quilters.\u00a0 This gives an interesting texture to the quilt.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I used a variety of thread colors, matching them to the fabrics in each circle, which means they are contrasting with the surrounding fabrics.\u00a0 I pieced the binding, and then machine stitched it with a contrasting color, and stitched 3 rows, in keeping with the matchstick quilting idea.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As with my last circle quilt<\/a>, I had a hard time coming up with a title for this one, so I asked for suggestions on Instagram<\/a>.\u00a0 I got lots of fabulous suggestions (and will likely use some of them in the future for other quilts)!\u00a0 I decided to go with ‘Eclipse’ suggested by Debbie of A Quilter’s Table<\/a> – thanks Debbie!<\/p>\n
