This was a fun project! I designed this digital panel a while back for Honest Fabric and finally got a chance to quilt it up. This is a 51 x 60 panel and the Moss version of my Unhinged design. I have 5 different colorways to choose from for this design, also available in 3 different sizes.
This design has a lot going on with the block, so I decided that simple ruler work would be the best for the quilting. I didn't want to take away from this design, I wanted to just show off the block. I didn't have to mark anything, I just used the points in the design to quilt each straight line.
The green areas of the quilt are quilted to be the background design. You will see how the design pulls together with the border.
I did end up with more fabric for the top and bottom of the quilt, but I love how it turned out. The wavy lines in the border work well with the on-point squares in between each block.
It turned out just fabulous!
This panel is perfect for working on your ruler skills and then you end up with a darling quilt top as well.
I used 2 layers of Hobbs 80/20 batting for this quilt top and Glide 60wt white for the thread.
Minky for the back! This made the quilt extra soft and fun.
This panel is darling, and while it is polyester - I still enjoy quilting it up. I used a size 16 needle for that reason and the 60wt white thread so that I didn't have to change the thread color throughout the quilt. It really is a beautiful quilt top.

This is just gorgeous! The way you quilted it makes it look pieced, not a panel. Now I'd like to see the panel to see what it looked like before you started quilting.
Hi Judi,
Your Unhinged Quilt is gorgeous! Are you selling the panels? If so, in what sizes?
Thanks,
Betsy
