Alternate Routes #1

 evelyn1

This is Evelyn’s version of our Alternate Routes pattern and she chose to do the rectangular medallion layout. This is the first of these quilts I have quilted for a client and since I presented this pattern to our guild as a Mystery project I know I’ll be getting more. I love seeing what layout quilters are choosing as I have not seen two the same yet.  Some are using one of the 20 layouts we gave in the pattern and some are adding their own twist and I love seeing that!   Evelyn used white and navy fabrics for her quilt as we suggested high contrast colors for this one.

I used Fascinations for the panto design, Navy So Fine thread and Dream Blend batting.

Lori and I set up a Flickr page so you can see some of the quilts that have been made with this pattern so far.
