I'm back to reveal the finished product of my very first quilt swap! Earlier this summer I shared the plan with you. I stayed pretty true to the original idea. I did end up adding a border and added some strips to the back to make it wide enough. I love the way it ended up looking! And my partner loved it too.
Pattern: Geometric Mountain Range by Art School Dropout
Top Fabrics: Black & White Collection by Cotton + Steel
Backing Fabric: Vintage Floral in Aqua by Cotton + Steel
Binding Fabric: Dotti's Cousin in Lime by Cotton + Steel
Since the front was fairly monochromatic, I really wanted the back to pop. I used a cotton voile by Melody Miller (my swap buddy's favorite designer) and added a couple of panels to make it fit the width. I love the top, but the back turned out awesome. I love the texture of the quilting over the graphic back.
I'm so thrilled how it turned out! I have another swap reveal to share in the next week as well. I'm so hooked on swaps now! I'm finishing up 2 more swaps right now and have another one due in 2016.
Be sure to follow me on Instagram to watch my swap progress and find out when new swaps start!
