1 1 2 3 5 8


1 1 2 3 5 8 was my entry for the QuiltCon 2026 fabric challenge. Emails went out yesterday announcing which quilts were juried into the show. I am honored that 2 of my quilts will be in the show. However, this particular this quilt is a QuiltCon reject.

While this is an original design, this is not the first time I made this quilt. The original version was featured in Make Modern magazine. When I was trying to come up with a design for the fabric challenge, I kept coming back to this one and thought the design gave me a chance to explore how the fabrics worked together.


This was the first QuiltCon entry that I completely hand-quilted - that process was so fun and I hope to do it again.

In the show or not, I am really proud of how this quilt turned out!

Have a wonderful day! Patty

  2. I agree with Yvonne. It's great! I think big stitch hand quilting adds so much more character and depth to a modern quilt. I love the effect, and you must definitely do it again.
