Jen's Quilt

 This quilt is for my niece, Jennifer. It didn't start out that way....I was just making black scrappy blocks to use up some black scraps. My sis said Jen would like it, so i put it together for her. The red border was my sister's idea. It is about 70 x 80"

There are bits of color...like this lime green quarter circle. it is less than 1/2"

And a bit of orange

And there are a couple of cats. Jen has a cat.

Some spooky looking cats and some blue color

There is even a dog

This little square of red and black plaid started the "red column". The third column from the left has a bit of red in each block.

Usually pretty subtle...like these red circles in the black.

And the tiny red stripe in the black and white stripe.  I quilted it with gray thread across....a line in the ditch of the blocks and 3 lines across the block. After all that, i turned the quilt and quilted lines in red in the red column.

This is the back. My pic is kind of grainy...it is a gray, black and white print. My sis picked it out, too.

Jen is a graphic design artist, so I think she will like it.
