Colorful Chains by Kathie Miller, quilted by Kim Votava  

Gorgeous taupe and indigo batiks distinguish this Trip Around the World quilt! Kathie Miller notes that everyone loves this traditional pattern, and that it's exciting to try up-to-date stripping techniques to improve the process. "The most difficult part of this quilt was selecting the fabric and coming up with the order!"

Southwest Squares, 52 x 78, by Daryl Lynn, quilted by Laura Jansen

After years of blogging here on Quilt Inspiration about other people's quilts, Daryl Lynn finally took the time to make a quilt to enter into a show. The quilt received a blue ribbon at the 2016 Guild of Quilters of Contra Costa County (California) show.

Daryl Lynn based her quilt on the "Bright Squares" design featured in the 2015 book, Heritage Quilts by Kaffe Fassett.  This quilt is comprised of more than one thousand 2-inch fabric squares.  The squares were sewn into big 26 inch square blocks, which were then pieced together.

Note: This design is traditionally known as a Philadelphia Pavement quilt, which is a variation of Trip Around the World. If you enjoyed this post you may be interested in our FREE PATTERN DAY for Trip Around the World quilts (CLICK HERE):
