Wonky Zoo Quilt

I started this a couple weeks ago, made 11 blocks, then put it aside because I wasn't sure I liked it. A couple of days ago I decided to just finish the last block, piece together a backing and finish it already.

I'm really glad I did because I love it :)

The fabrics I used are by Heather Bailey, Amy Butler, Alexander Henry, Studio E, Kaffe Fassett, Windham... and the solids are Kona and Moda Bella.

Quite a laundry list. And quite a 70s vibe, no?

I put a scrap of the Alexander Henry Willow Shroom amongst the Kona (espresso I think?) binding.

I love the back too. I kind of love it a lot.

It ended up measuring 40" by 54", and is currently available in the shop SOLD.
