Jenny's New Tutorial - 8/2 - Modern Quilt

I like that! I just don't have time.

Interesting. Not really my taste, either, but might be fun to try someday. Would make a nice charity quilt in masculine colors- that seems to be what is most needed.

I love this and the possibilities are endless!

We did this one but it was called science fair.

Honestly, it goes together very quickly!

Cute quilt, but not my style. Looks like a lot of possibilities though.

I agree, it is interesting....I do like the geometric aspect, but definitely not my style. Thought I liked modern/contemporary....maybe it's just this pattern. Being a beginner, I'm all for quick & easy....straight cuts, straight lines & seams!! Hopefully I will graduate to something more challenging, if not I will be happy to perfect my skills. :)

BTW, I do love the idea of the Hot Air Balloon applique! If you do it, please share.

It would be cute to make a Hot Air Balloon applique quilt with the big Hexi though.

Love this! I can see it as bubbles rising from the sea bottom, bubble bath time or snow flakes falling! Very exciting!

I like the design but I'm not fond of the gray background. Would like it better in white. Or if done with the balloon theme maybe a blue batik that looked like sky. I'm glad to see Jenny & co. putting up tutorials that appeal to all quilters, modern or traditional. Even though I probably won't make the majority of them it's sure fun to watch Jenny. I kind of think of her as my quilting friend even though we've never met.

It's not my style, but I can picture this with bright batiks on a black background. I love Jenny's tutorials but this one is not for beginners (IMHO). There are a lot of techniques left out of the video that would probably cause a lot of confusion for a beginner. I'll have to think about this one. Maybe a table runner for me. Yup, black background and bright batiks!
