Colorful quilt

I am a reader of the German journal "Patchwork Professional" and found a quilt in an old issue. Their quilt is called "Crossover". It is worked by Marianne Arens and featured in the 01/2006 issue.



It is sewn exclusively with my own hand-dyed fabrics. I used Procion MX colors.
I quilted it in a different way than shown in my inspiring example. It took me three afternoons. I made two off-center circles and emphasized several blocks, all free machine quilting.



The quilt is not finished yet. I have to make still the border -
anyway - have a look at it. It is pinned to my design wall.



The idea of the quilt lines came actually from the Quilting Arts Magazine.
