Here is a 12 x 12 inch mini quilt I made recently. It was intended for a Quilting Arts magazine invitational challenge, but it wasn’t selected. But I’m sure it will find a place in an exhibit at some point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to use bright colors with black lines on a chartreuse background. I experimented with circles and curves and squares, but the overlapping squarish shapes appealed the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Terry Aske – My Signature Colors<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While composing my artist statement, I searched my blog for some good wording about my love of chartreuse, and rediscovered this post<\/a> from September 2012 (the third post on my blog!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It describes my entry to the Quilting Arts \u201cWhat\u2019s your Signature Color?\u201d reader challenge.\u00a0 My answer was \u201cMy absolute favorite color is chartreuse; you\u2019ll find at least a bit of it in almost every one of my quilts.\u00a0 It\u2019s a bold and complex color that adds punch to almost any color palette.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s eleven years later, and I still love chartreuse, especially when combined with bright vibrant colors and a touch of black.\u00a0 I named this piece My Signature Colors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used some of my favourite techniques \u2013 freezer paper templates and raw edge seams covered with bias tape. I sewed the center pieces together, then inserted them into the background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seams are covered with skinny black bias tape. I machine quilted an overall tilted grid with chartreuse thread, and the edges are faced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
