GIMLET Modern throw quilt 67 by 69 inches

This modern quilt has an abstract design composed of improv pieced elements.  Solids and prints in palette of blue, aqua, black, white and gray make up improv pieced blocks of log cabin squares, grids, strips and frames.  Chartreuse acts as an accent color in the piecing as well as the background framing color. The abstract style is elevated by the variety of fabrics, shapes, lines and bold color combo of blue and lime green.  This distinctly modern quilt will be the perfect addition to your modern, bohemian or traditional home – living room, bedroom, patio or reading nook.

The reverse side has a large strip-pieced block surrounded by turquoise and teal.  Using variegated thread, I stitched parallel lines across the quilt, giving the quilt an easy drape, crinkled appearance and a lush, textured feel. Unbleached cotton batting gives the quilt lightweight warmth. The binding in chartreuse was attached securely with machine stitching for durability. All fabrics and batting are premium 100% cotton.

Care: Machine wash in cold water. Tumble dry, low heat; or air dry flat if you prefer. The quilt has been machine washed and dried after construction, to shrink it to its final dimensions.
