Free Styling & Spiraling Complementary Colors by Cindy M

PQ 17.5 Complementary Colors

On February 28th, I took a class with Mel Beach called “Free Styling & Spiraling” (I highly recommend the class) and I was so happy this new technique would work with this week’s challenge. My first idea was a blue and orange butterfly with spiraling triangles for wings (I have quilt top made but need to quilt, turn it into a pillow and post it at some point). I decided to keep making triangles but switched to purple and yellow. 

This approximately 9” by 34” wall hanging was the result. I love the technique but need to see if I can get a more consistent size triangular block – the improv nature of the technique means that not all the blocks are exactly the same size. I didn’t want to lose the spiral on any blocks, so the piece is not rectangular. This was a fun and very colorful challenge.

My Complements by Jacomina

I decided to make something useful like for the guild sales booth although I loved playing with the purple yellow combo.

The Mountains by Megan C

I loved this challenge. Had a lot of fun with the mountains. I muted the sun and the streaks in the sky by placing them beneath the pale yellow fabric. I’d never don’t that before, but liked the effect.

This quilt measures 14x18. It is cotton/cotton blend. Machine done with the exception of the binding.

My Complements Tote Bag by Robin B

Our new challenge

I made a tote bag out of a blue daisy print. I appliquéd an orange daisy on the front. I lined it with a bright yellow. I’m out of my comfort zone with this color combination. Thanks for challenging me.
