A Sampler of Guitars A Sampler of Guitars
By: Debbie Lange Quilting,
Indiana, USA

For my nephew,Dominick. I designed the quilt on graph paper leaving the body of the guitars open to incorporate traditional quilt blocks with a 6, 8 or 9 grid. The necks were flying geese or 4 patches. After completing with a white background it was too bright so I stained /sponged with a tea wash.

This quilt wasn’t made for a teen…but it was made in our high school’s colors and I think the bold colors and simple design would make it an ideal teen quilt.

    I started my Christmas quilting in January and I just finished my first large quilt with machine binding last week. Found an awesome tutorial for binding that looks like you added piping, but it’s made with the binding cut in two strips. I will be surely doing more like this.
