Well with a weekend of Daytona Nationwide and Sprint Cup then an evening with Oscars (which I turned off after the special effects awards - soooo boring!) - it was the perfect time to finish up a couple of projects. I'll share more on Thursday but today we have the Crow Quilt.
I found the fabric at Joann Fabric during Halloween with no idea what I was going to do with it. I'm not too into black or monochromatic quilts but I bought it nonetheless.
I decided to do a quilt and mix it with other blacks and greys and have a row of patchwork with a row of crows.
After quilting it last week, I wish I would have made the non-crow material smaller so it didn't compete so much but oh well...next time.
Here's the front:
Here's the back:
The photos make some of the material look yellow but it's just the sun shining on it! Yes, sun at 5pm in Seattle - whuuuut?
And yes, I get the irony of showing a Halloween quilt on a so.close.you.can.almost.taste.it.spring.day...
"As the crow flies" is an idiom for the shortest route between two points; or the geodesic distance. - Thus your super fun fact from wikipedia! Make it happen people! JCoy
