Back in Style

After getting the convergence quilt layered over the weekend, (and yes, I did piece the back) I couldn't resist quilting it this evening.  I put on a movie because the distraction keeps me from getting too tense and tight with the quilting.  All I can say is "that is what works for me!" 

 There it is, quilted and laying across my sewing table. 














Of course I gave you a peek at the back in my last post, but I thought I needed to share more of it. The end pieces are a mottled gray that has a very slight blue tint. The purple batik is just a fun fabric that I liked as it echoes the color from the front. I put the yellow stripe off center to make it a little more interesting visually. All the pieces of the back are different sizes so that is it asymmetrical.  I think this quilt is one that I would alternate which side is up. I have never made a back that I like this well. 

The quilting on this is a bit different. It is similar to my wavy grid pattern.  However, for this I did some deeper curves and some that were more shallow again to give a variety for visual interest. 

I love the interesting shapes that it makes.   

Now I have to decide what fabric I will use as a  binding for this little beauty of a quilt.
