Quilting

This is my version of the layout done by Tula Pink. Hers was in a charcoal background. I did this quilt in 2019 in a similar colorway, so chose this white background for Pythia time instead. I loved her floating block design which kept me going with block sets that were frankly boring compared to others who had colorful backgrounds that accented each shape. Tula didn’t have a border between the outer trees and houses, and didn’t need one. As I watched mine go on the wall, I felt it needed something to break up all that white. I figured out I could adjust the tree as well as the tall and short house cutting an inch and a quarter of finished size to add a strip to sets of 4 or 5 outer blocks. It kept my block count and finished top size the same as Tula’s example. Anyway, I’m really happy with my finish!
