Thank U, Next #24 by Ashlee Rudert (Bountiful, Utah)  

This stunning black & white quilt used the Illustrations fabric collection by Alli K Design for Moda Fabrics. To add a hint of color, Ashlee also included a large print fabric with hints of periwinkle and taupe.  The quilt is based on the FREE Illustrated Squares quilt pattern by Alli K (CLICK for PDF download!) 

Ashlee says she began working on this project during the filming of Handi Quilter's Clueless Quilter, Episode 5.  "I decided to approach it as a sampler quilt that would feature different stitching techniques.  My friend, Kim Sandberg, taught me several tips on how to use rulers, adjust tension for various types of thread, and helped me try out special accessory feet while we filmed the episode."
