I was lucky to get a lot of assorted Marimekko fabrics from a good and encouraging friend and finally decided to cut them seriously into a new project. The prints are so bold and the colors so bright that I thought simple squares would do the job. So I've been crawling over a sandwich of top, batting and backing, pin-basting my new quilt. I never seem to have enough pins!
Your work is AMAZING! Such a beautiful aesthetic. Love that nine patch #2 - great idea framing the blocks with a different fabric than the outside border - gives the quilt a lot more interest and depth.
