Let's try another angle

This wall hanging was made for the 2011 Jabez Quilt Seminar Challenge "What is Black & Red and Stitched All Over?" Participants received a fat quarter each of black music print and red solid in January. My entry was completed on November 23, 2011. It was machine pieced and machine quilted on my domestic machine - a Janome Jem Platinum760. I titled it "Dancing with the Stars" for the fabrics in it and the TV show of this era even though I don't watch it. The design is based on 60 degree angles as written by Sara Nephew - Quilts from a Different Angle or something like that. The pieces were cut from stripped panels so I made another wall hanging from the "leftovers".

This one is titled "Clover in the Snow" like Sara's. I think the red triangles remind me of radiation warnings. Would "Nuclear Winter" for a title be too depressing? It was also machine quilted, following a stencil design in the border in "free motion". Don't look at it too closely, please.

I did make another potential entry but it is missing at the moment. I displayed it at the LWC Gallery last June and can't remember if I sold it or packed it. That's why I need to do this blog. I did have a list of the quilts displayed but it was on the other computer that croaked. Stay tuned - if I find it, I'll take another picture.
