Infrastructure Week 9 - Row 9

You made it, the last row and it's a simple strip set so week 9 is also a great catch up week.  This week the Benartex Superior Solids being used are Magenta, Purple, Grape, Medium Gray and Charcoal.  Check out Christa's blog for more information on the Geo Pop version.

Infrastructure Row 9 - fabric


I think this is my favorite color combo so far.  The ombré is so calming and a great foundation for the rest of the quilt to stand on.

Infrastructure row 9 - cut

There have been a few other strip sets in the quilt and for more tips a tricks take a peek at weeks 2 - row 1, week 4 - rows 3 & 5 and week 7 - row 7.   I switched back to the medium-dark grey Aurifil 50 wt thread to piece row 9.  I had been using a mixture of white and medium-dark grey for the past few rows.

There you have it row 9 is complete!  I hope you've been able to see the quilt come together with each row we completed.  We'll be wrapping this one up before you know it.  Here's a peek of the finished Infrastructure quilt in the Benartex booth at Quilt Market last week.

  3. I love seeing all of these colors and shapes coming together. It makes me feel like a preschooler playing with building blocks! Maybe that is the everlasting joy of "infrastructure", whether one is a quilter, an artist, or an architect.

  9. I've been wanting to try wool batting. I hear it has a greater fluff which is nice for a winter quilt.
