Test Pattern

Ta da!!!


I can't believe it's the last day of February and I'm only now posting my first finish of 2011!  Sheesh!

On the other hand, evern if I do say so myself - it was worth the wait! 




When I posted the sneak peek last week, I bet you didn't know where I was going, did you? When BSP asked me "What's that?" and I said "a test pattern", the reply was "O---kay..."  lol

When I designed the quilt, I was thinking of it as a painting - but when I started making it, the vertical stripes reminded me of a tv test pattern - hence it's name.



But I could see this quilt - practically down to the placement of every one of those circles.

At 58.5 inches wide and 77 inches long, it's a bit big even for my laps (55 x 75) but I've discovered it's the perfect size to use as a topper on a queen sized bed - it covers the top exactly.  I think I'm going to make all my laps that size now so they can double as toppers too.

Anyway - I'm feeling much better now, so I should be able to get on some sort of schedule - which means, more quilts are in our future!

Hope you like this first one of 2011. I sure do.  :)



P.S. I lied! lol Besides my art quilts, I have finished a twin sized quilt in January for a 3CS challenge.  So, `Test pattern`is number two.
