Quilted Finish: QAL Value Play Pantone Quilt


Hello! I am usually excited but today I am really excited to share with you a finished quilt that does double duty as a Pantone Challenge Quilt and a Quilt with Me quilt along (QAL) finish! When I started the QAL I had no idea there was a radiant orchid Pantone Quilt Challenge happening in these same colors. How cool that purple is making it's way into modern quilting. Purple can be a hard color to work with but when paired with a neutral like grey it allows the colors to shine through. If you'd like to make this quilt then stay tuned I'll have all the links you need below. But for now enjoy the photos of my value play quilt!

    This turned out beautifully! I love the way the purple shifts through the quilt, it really draws my eye around the quilt!

    This is lovely - I think you've balanced the values across your quilt very nicely. The quilting is really fun too - must try that design some time.
