Indian Blanket

I finished my Indian Blanket which has become my new favorite fall couch quilt.


This was my first time using Kona Mushroom as a background, and I have to say I love it. It is the perfect mix of brown and gray. Although I love geometric quilts, I somehow have never found myself making a quilt out of triangles. I will definitely be using them more. I love the look, and it went together so smoothly!



The pattern is part of the "Angled" class recently offered by Stitched in Color.

My life has been crazy and my blogging erratic; however, I am headed into 2015 with no sewing commitments to anyone but myself. I feel that I have in some ways lost touch with why I started and have forgotten how to be creative for me. I am so excited to see what new things I get to make in 2015! Until then, I plan to knock out my WIP pile. It has gotten much too big. You know how that goes.

  5. I love Rachel's classes and your quilt is just beautiful and a great example of the pattern she taught. The mushroom background is very earthy looking and really makes all your other fabric choices really pop! ! Great job! Good luck in the coming year on your creative endeavors!

  6. Gorgeous quilt!!! And I applaud your 20115 commitment, or lack thereof. :D I'm hoping to do something similar for myself... or at least knock a few WIPs off the pile!
