There is a quiet elegance to West End, the kind of quilt that feels calm and considered while still full of colour. Little triangles in soft, pretty prints march around a gentle grey background in two graceful rings, one framing the outer edge in a tidy square and another curving into a circle at the centre. With so much restful grey space between them, those colourful triangles really do glow.
The design plays beautifully with the idea of geese in flight, small triangle units all pointing the same way as they travel around the quilt. The calm background lets each little print sing, and setting one ring as a square and the other as a circle gives the whole piece a lovely sense of movement and a real modern charm.
Here is why this one is worth making:
- A striking modern layout. The square outer ring and the circular inner ring against all that soft grey give the quilt a fresh, gallery like feel, calm and elegant at once.
- A joyful way to show off prints. Those little triangles are the perfect place for your favourite pretty prints, a handful of small pieces adding up to something really special.
- A generous square size. At 66" x 66", it is lovely as a throw over the sofa or as a real statement piece on the wall, with a beautifully balanced shape.
