Yup, today I get to share another SUU Quilt in my favorite Red, White, and Black color combo!!! Each year at the Quilty Friends Retreat , I take a class and I decided a few years back to start making SUU quilts in each of these classes. So this is Meadowlands Quilt and the pattern is by Then Came June.
This was a super fun class from two years ago (yes, the one from this year still needs to be finished pieced, ah well :) For this version I went with all soilds. Because sometimes Solids for the Win is just the way to go!!! I am so glad my Alma Mater has Red, White, and Black for the school colors. I just such a great color combo and one that I don't mind doing over and over again ;)
And once again, I added an SUU layered applique to the corner of the quilt. You can really do just about anything with this layered applique technique!! Again, you can find the step by step tutorial here for layered applique :)
When it came time to quilt this Meadowlands Quilt I decided on an all over swirl in varying sizes ;) It is always fun to mix up the small, medium, and large swirls. It adds some great texture and movement to this super geometric quilt. And of course, a red thread was perfect for this quilt.
And that is my SUU Meadowlands Quilt. The pattern has several size options and I made the Bed Size 80" x 96" so it will be great for cuddling up in during a cold game :) And this one will get a happy new home very soon as well. I just love that I can use my love of quilting to help out my favorite School!!!
Thanks again for popping in for another quilt finish!!
I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!
