Kaleidoscope in Red and Teal

This quilt started out as a few practice blocks to see if I could figure out how to make them. I studied many many kaleidoscope quilts on Pinterest to discover how you get the swirls in the design.


I'm very happy with the results and I'm ready to make another.
This one is totally from scraps and stash.   


The movement comes through the placement of lights and darks. 


The corners aren't perfect, but with all the movement, you don't really notice!  Hooray for that.


The binding is striped shades of gray.  My go-to spiral quilting on my DSM. 


Quilt measures 62" x 78". Perfect for snuggling or a picnic. 
Warm and white cotton batting, and I splurged on a wide backing to make it easy. 

This one is going to my niece and her husband for their cabin in the woods. . . .
