Summer Haze Quilt

 My worse quilting decisions are in this Summer Haze Quilt.  LOL

I found these three 1-yard prints as a bundle and I really liked them.  But I could never find a way to use them (with other prints).  I also did not want to add more prints from the collection.  So I challenged myself to make a quilt with just these 3 yards.  I had to add a neutral blender to accomplish making a quilt with these prints.


If you look closely, you might see the design.  There just is not enough contrast to define the design and it is lost.

I didn't want to put any more of my time into this quilt, so I took it to a local shop for quilting.  It is quilted by Mickey at Sew Many Pieces quilt shop.  The quilting design is dragonflies.  I love the quilting.


I also love the backing fabric!  It blends better (than the photo shows)with the fabrics on the front.  I use it backing side up.


There you have it... how NOT to design a quilt!  LOL

They can't all be wins, I guess.  I don't totally hate this quilt, but I also don't totally love it either.  It's useable and does its job.
