I am making the Nightingale Quilt as part of the Aotearoa Quilters Summer Stitch Along. It's a very modern quilt made with plain fabrics. I have never made a full-size quilt out of solids before and the colour scheme is modern. I love it so have decided to make mine using (almost) the same colours. I don't usually make quilts from patterns or copy someone else's colour scheme however this is an exercise and challenge for me to use solids, modern colours and a modern design. I have a guest bedroom in need of a fresh quilt so it is being made for a purpose.
I will do a separate post on the accurate piecing needed to complete this quilt.
Also, it has flying geese using a clever way to simplify this process plus this video below on how to then trim them up.
