Modern Quilt Month: Modern Fans

We're finishing up Modern Quilt Month here at Quilt Inspiration! We've been posting a new modern quilt each weekday... we hope you have enjoyed our photos! Today's fun quilt is a modern take on a traditional design.

Modern Fans, made by Janet Pugh & quilted by Linda Cote.

We hope our photo does justice to this lovely quilt with its plum-colored background (it's rally hard to photograph this color under artificial light!) Janet Pugh says, "My quilt began with a jelly roll of Kaffe Fassett's shot cotton.  I chose his plum-colored to pull the many shades together.  I think it adds a very modern spin to a traditional pattern."  She used a pattern from 'Jelly Roll Dreams' (by Pam & Nicky Lintott, 2012.)  Linda Cote did the quilting, adding a very decorative touch to the wedges.
