    Default Modern Scrappy Quilt With Black Background Just Finished!
    I just finished binding this quilt for a Christmas gift for one of my nieces. She likes scrappy quilts so think she will like this one. I don't normally do many scrappy quilts, but this pattern appealed to me and I like using the black background to add a little drama to it. My long arm quilter did a great job with some circular feathers in the large black squares, some curved lattice in the smaller ones and a meander stipple on the bright color fabrics.
