Do you like it?

Yes, I'm fishing for compliments.  All this time, I've been making quilts, there's been a tussle between modern and traditional with no clear winners.  Well today I think I've made a modern quilt.  It's not improv but it is simple, bold and, I think, modern.  And I am chuffed to bits.

I quilted it with lines 2" apart to give it the feel of those seventies black leather modular sofas and armchairs.

And though it's been pouring and pouring and pouring with rain all day yesterday and all day today, I couldn't resist hanging it over the fence for a couple of photos because I was so excited to see how it would photograph.  It's all Kaufman Kona solids taken from my Bounty of Basics boxes and I tried to make it not too rainbowy - so I chose sludgier and dustier colours, not that you can tell that from this photo which just makes it look like a big fat rainbow in this weather.

And yes, I'm blatantly fishing for compliments on this one because I feel really really proud of it and of myself for making it.  And it's called "theyoutube" - a quilt for a generation of Youtube kids like mine.
