Quilts #12-14 were completed before Christmas, but were commissioned as gifts so I couldn’t share until now. Quilt #14 was made for an adult Mississippi State University fan.With such as limited color pallet, this quilt was easily the most difficult to layout. There were not enough colors to do a “random” layout, but a pattern would be difficult to read, too. I ended up going with a diagonal pattern of maroon/gray & maroon/white.

Again, I went with a pointed diamond border, and quilted 1/4 inch on either side of the seams. This quilt puffed and puckered nicely, making for a real “snuggly” lap quilt. (totally a technical term).

Like the others in this series (quilts 12, 13, & 14), I backed the quilt with corresponding chevron fabric and leftover prints from the front. It’s a bit hard to see, but the large stripe has logo-ed diamonds in the maroon piecing.I am so not a sports fan. And this is so not a quilt I would typically do, but I am pleased with how it turned out: I feel like it’s a calmer, more understated “fan” quilt. There’s enough solids mixed in with the prints that it doesn’t become overwhelming, but it still fits the theme nicely.
