Hi again,
For my second entry, I’ll be contributing my Trilobite Quilt to the Modern Quilt Category of the Blogger’s Quilt Festival.
As I shared in my original blog post, the Trilobite quilt was inspired by the trilobite fossils found on a childhood vacation.
I find it so intriguing that one often cannot even see a mistake in a quilt until it’s pointed out. So I wanted to play with a bit of quilt sabotage. Nothing major. I was kind of afraid I would pay too much attention to the mistakes I made on purpose, that I would make an actual mistake. So I just threw a tiny bit of sabotage in there. Can you see it?
I consider this quilt to be a modern quilt with traditional roots. I’ve always been a fan of the traditional two color quilts – so simple and dramatic. But I feel like this quilt has a bit of a modern flair to it. Hope you like it!
Thanks!

Here’s a link to the Trilobite Quilt pattern! Thanks!
Very dramatic. Love the traditional roots and the acidic color!
It is a wonderful quilt. The pattern is great, and I love the full-on colour/white combination – it's so striking.
Wow this is so eye catching! Love it!
That is beautiful, Becca. Stunning. I hope you are doing well! – Kate
It's kind of Amish-like, isn't it? Love the green color and your directional quilting. Thanks for sharing this!
I love this! Love the use of solids it really adds to the impact!
Love the contrasting colors! And the deliberate mistakes are great! I'll have to try to make some of those rather than the other kind 😉
I'm so in love with the simplicity of this quilt! It could perfectly be featured in one of those fancy interious magazines! And the rebel triangle is such a neat detail.
