Broken

My first attempt at outdoor photography.   


The back.


 I've had "parts" of this quilt in my head for years.  I was inspired by my customer Lynn's quilts.  Here's one of the quilts that got me day dreaming. 


I pictured a B and W quilt with larger blocks in the center and smaller blocks in reverse randomly placed on the outer corners.


And then I saw Jacquie Gering's quilt Shattered and fell in love with it!  That led to finding her blog and then being lucky enough to hear her speak at The Portland Modern Quilt Guild.  I knew I had to finish this quilt!!


I loved her 2 sided border. 


I quickly moved all of the randomly placed corner blocks onto 2 of my borders and called it Broken.   Because next to Shattered mine looks a little broken =)  But I still love it.  Thanks for all the inspiration Jacquie and Lynn!
