Kaleidoscope Quilt

Karen has been working on a Kaleidoscope Quilt over the last two months and finished the top of the quilt earlier this evening. The original quilt fabric came from an Asian theme collection. The fabric has a tan background with pink and red cherry blossoms. This version of kaleidoscope quilt is made with a technique using one piece of fabric and cutting triangles that are sewn into hexagons. These are pieced in such a way that the end result looks nothing like the original fabric. We hung the quilt top on the way to take pictures. We have a few we took along the way to give an idea of the process. We can't wait to see the finished usable product!
