It's getting pretty exciting here at the de Jong Dream House as I am closing in on my 100th quilt! Today I'm sharing my 98th finish. The pattern is Wayward Transparency by the uber talented Quilting Jet Girl, Yvonne Fuchs. Yvonne hosted a quilt along over the past several months and I am so happy with how it turned out! In fact, at this point, I think I may actually keep this one for myself!
I've been trying to use up my stash for my social quilting projects like this one. I didn't mean to use the same tones as Yvonne, but when I pulled out the white and teal print on the right in the photo below, I knew that I had to use it for the backing.
For this particular quilt, it was important to have dark, medium, and light values so I made my photo black and white to confirm my choices.
The actual assembly was quite easy, but since it isn't my pattern, I'll leave those photos out. At the moment, you can still find directions from the quilt along on Yvonne's site, If it isn't there when you read this post, please visit her Craftsy page to find her patterns.
I used my go-to spiral for the quilting. It's a way to practice stitch regulation without a stitch regulator.
I finished it at night, just as my favorite quilt tester was going to bed.
He approves!
Thank you, Yvonne, for sharing your awesome pattern!
