Happy Friday/Almost Friday, everyone and welcome to TGIFF! I had hoped to finish all three remaining pieces in my mini modern quilt series, but this bug has really kicked my butt. I did get one of them finished though. Edited: This mini quilt was also part of my One Thing One Week Challenge with Amy's Creative Side, which I completely forgot to mention on Thursday in my strep throat induced haze. Thanks again, Amy, hosting such a great challenge!
This is the grey one, which I'm calling Grey Squared. It's a very dreary day here so I had a lot of problems trying to get photos that properly captured the colours. Here's one with the flash on, which gets the grey, dark orange and dark blue right.
Here's one with the flash off, which gets dark teal and chartreuse right. Anyone else find this challenge when they photograph their quilts?
For this mini, I did stippled squares in a matching grey thread. What a different texture than Semaphore, eh?

ReplyDeletelove it!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it! The texture from the quilting is wonderful. Trying to get good pictures is always a challenge, I usually end up using no flash, but then playing with the brightness and contrast in a photo editing software.
ReplyDeleteI really like the grey one! The quilting is perfect with the design!
ReplyDeleteLoving your Grey Squared M R - especially the quilting, it looks fab!!! I am having exactly the same problems as you, trying to get a good photo. Sounds like our weather is the same. Roll on the spring sunshine!
ReplyDeleteLove the Quilting!! Thanks for hosting this weeks TGIFF!!
ReplyDeleteThese are going to look so neat hanging together. Love the square-based quilting on it!
ReplyDeletegrey as a neutral is one of my faves- yours is lovely!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! Love the quilting you did. And yes, I have the same problem capturing the true colors. In my post today, I think each picture looks like a different quilt. LoL Thank you for hosting TGIFF today!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE your quilts!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt - I really love the quilting!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the quilting too!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great - it's amazing how changing the colours and quilting (compared to semaphore) can make it so very different.
ReplyDeleteI really like this quilt and especially the quilting.
ReplyDeleteIt's going to be a great series - I love both this one and the Semaphore.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty and your quilting is gorgeous! Thank you for linking up to LQM.
