The latest issue of Make Modern Magazine is now available and my quilt pattern, Altered State, is featured in the publication!
This design started as a completely different sketch I made years ago. On a random Friday night inspiration struck and I morphed that original sketch into this design. This particular quilt and the color palette define me well. I love using extremely simplified geometric shapes in my designs. And if you’re been around for awhile, you know that black and pink are my favorite colors, especially in quilts.
By using transparency where the blocks intersect, it creates an optical illusion that tricks the eye – the placement of the blocks moves forwards or backwards depending on where your eye focuses.
To construct the quilt, I glue basted a few important seams. A short glue basting tutorial is included in the pattern.
Altered State was pieced using Kona Cotton Solids in Pomegranate, Black, Graphite and Silver. I pieced the quilt using 50 wt Aurifil Thread in 2026 (Mist). Thank you to Jukebox Quilts for providing the E2E longarm services on Altered State. We chose the Waterdrops panto from Natalia Majors.
