It’s a quilting edition, today! Here are some of my favorite Flickr discoveries, this week. From left to right:

1. Crafthope Donation Quilt by hrtgmkr – I love the graphic nature of this quilt and the simple use of grayscale. I think it makes a big impact!

2. Modified Bento Box Quilt by calamityla – I like how this quilt top looks almost pixelated in the photo. The use of all solids isn’t normally something that draws my eye, but I think it’s very effective in this instance.

3. Mini Nine: Whirling Skaters by banquopack – This whirly gig pattern looks great with the white solid offset.

4. Shadow Star Quilt by Red Pepper Quilts – One of my favorite photostreams to look through is that of Red Pepper Quilts. The use of color and pattern and superb construction are inspiring to me. I love how traditional this quilt is in form, but how modern colors really make it outstanding.

5. Stashbuster Quilt by Red Pepper Quilts – Another one from this great quilter! This is quickly becoming one of my favorite blocks, just because of it’s possibilities! Isn’t this great!?

6. Lazy Day Circles by Say Yes Juliet – For a first attempt at hand sewing, I think this is wonderful. Circles intimidate the hell out of me! I really like the starkness of the white background; it really makes these circles of color pop out at you.

7. Oregon Beaches by Bekhy – While this construction is far from simple, I’m sure, the basic piece of these blocks is just a square. Boy, what you can do with just a square! This quilt top almost has a 3-D aspect to it. Those white blocks really come to life!

8. Vanity Square by Val posted by maripenquiltmom – What a riot of color and pattern this is. The solids do a good job of balancing out all of the wonderful prints. This quilt shows me that I shouldn’t be as terrified of mixing prints and colors as I am – look how wonderfully this turned out!

9. Claudia’s Block by Quiltastic! – Here is this pinwheel block, again! I like how this looks so retro to me. I have no idea if it actually is! I just associate this block as something that my Grandma would have just loved.

What are some of your favorites?
