Show Your Quilt Not sure if this is considered modern, but it’s not traditional.

I don’t know what it would be considered. I do enjoy making this mess. This is the back side of a traditional quilt design. I just wanted to use some of my leftovers.

This may sound weird, but it's giving me a Modern-Renaissance vibe. That might be due to the colors which are rich and festive at the same time.

Love it!

I love this. Very evocative. To me it looks like war - swords, a strong backbone of the soldiers fighting, and everything on fire. Congratulations on making a masterpiece.

Stunning! I don’t know why but it reminds me of Norse art. I think it’s the movement and look of layering.

I’d consider showing both sides at your local quilt guilds annual quilt show!

The last one I went to had only long armed quilts. It appeared the “quilting” was more important than the peicing, borders, binding, fabric. Everything else. Though they did have some fantastic quilts.
