14 Jun Summer Sunrise
I enjoy working with bias strips so much. The slim curves they make just suit my minimalist style to a “T”. For this pillow, my color choices were inspired by summer sunrises and Jacquie‘s lovely low volume quilt. I quilted it in wavy echoes of the bias strips.
(I’m sorry this picture is not very good. My camera is not working and I had to borrow my daughter’s.)
This pillow recently made its way to a new friend. She has been incredibly supportive and encouraging to me and is just one of the nicest and most generous people I know.

Are the strips appliqued on or pieced in?
