Mod Blotches
I tried to design a block that was sort of retro 60’s splashes of color - someone actually had to tell me they looked more like fidget spinners.

Each block in Mod Blotches combines old school quilting fabrics with more contemporary fabrics

Another border flange (empty piping) - I do love that border quilting
OMG - a kind of boring back - I did change bobbin threads a lot to try to add some interest
Originally all the mod blotches were going to be on black and white background prints - then life happened and I wanted to incorporate some of Mom's fabric library into each block
After 28 years of quilting on small domestic machines, I finally bought myself some extra throat space!
