Kathy and I like to send each other links to beautiful quilts that capture our attention or inspire us.
This quilt is called “Urban Beads”
It was made by Jenny, at Sew Kind of Wonderful.
And, yes, she is a professional quilter.
What do I love about this quilt? Let me write a sonnet about it!
The colors are rich, and contemporary. The pattern is simple, but elegant.
The quilting is unbelievable. It is just extraordinary.
And, think about how unforgiving this pattern is! There is nothing “wonky” or “free form” here. There is no where to hide. The beads all line up, and they have to, because the negative space is as important as the positive space.
Thank you Jenny, my new (internet) friend. You have inspired me!

Dang! I am pretty bad at curves, and am only getting into the “I can really do a straight line” level of sewing. This is amazing!
