How do thread color and weight combine with quilting density to alter the overall impression of simple patchwork? This quilt consists of four nine-patch quilt blocks featuring bright colors. The intense color continues with the 50, 40, 28, and 12-weight quilting threads. While the thread color repeats throughout the quilt, the appearance alters depending on the fabric color behind it. Decorative machine stitching creates additional density within the plaid effect of the quilting.
