Blogger's Quilt Festival

Aaack!  I can't believe I almost let the Fall Blogger's Quilt Festival pass by without entering!  I've decided to enter my most recently completed favorite, Hot and Cold, in the ROYGBIV category.  Scrappy rainbow quilts always turn out to be my favorites!


This quilt was so much fun to put together.  I raided my scrap jars and sewed strip sets together in warm and cool colors, and then turned them into HST's.  I played around with a few different layouts, but I decided on this one, in part because I love the alternating direction of the warm and cool strips.


I used some leftover strips to create a mini rainbow on the back, and used a tiny black and white polkadot to really make the colors pop!  Tiny polkadots never turn out properly in photos, so here's a better view.  You can also see the soothing Kona Oasis binding in this one.
