Mellow Yellow by Jen Mulder

The first thing to come to my mind was the song "Bright as Yellow" by Innocence Mission.   This very simple quilt popped into my head.    Then I second guessed it for a few hours, thought about bargello quilts, Minions, Pikachu, Sponge Bob and other options, but I kept coming back to this one so I went for it.   I picked out 11 shades of Kona Cotton solids. 

The piecing is sort of like if you took a small rectangle of a bargello quilt and magnified it by 100.  The back has very small rubber ducks about 1/2" x 1/2" all over.  The quilting is freehand sunflowers from the song - "flower scarlet, flower gold, and have no thorns to distance me"

I plan on donating this quilt to Gilda's Club for one of their fund raising efforts.   I quilt in Madison, WI.
