I posted about this project earlier this week - *Lime Sherbet.*
I was hoping to have it completed to share this weekend, but not it's not quite done yet. What I forgot to mention when I shared it before was that I have a spool of Aurifil #2115 *Lemon!* that I thought would be fun to quilt it with.
I decided to play with the quilting to see what different kinds of designs I could figure out for the different sections.
This one might be my favorite -
Or maybe these wonky square spirals!
I found the perfect backing fabric in my stash!
There's just a little bit of quilting left to do, but the binding is ready to go. I'm hoping for some slow stitching time today or tomorrow to finish it all up!

I LOVE it! Can't wait to try it.
This is a fun abstract quilt. Nice colours and I love the quilting with the lemon thread.
LOVE it!!! especially the quilting. I wish I had the ambition and ability to hand quilt - sometimes; I'm one of those 'want it done yesterday so I can see how it looks finished' type of quilters -- that and 'arthur' has started taking residence in my fingers. I'll just live vicariously among those of you who can/do hand quilt.
the quilting makes it very interesting
WOW. Beautiful
Well, the name after quilting and using the lemon thread is just perfect!! I loved the top from the get go and love it even more after the quilting!
The lemon thread is perfect! Great quilting and a fun little quilt!
Looks like you had lots of fun with the quilting on this one. It looks great.
I love your quilting. It looks great with that lemon thread. It is so whimsical, just like the quilt itself.
Your limited colour pallet is very effective and nice quilting!
You nailed this one Diann. I love the piecing, the quilting and the colors. Really nice!
Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
Wow, you're really going modern on us, aren't you? Fun quilting on a minimalist piece.

Isn't it amazing how versatile that Lemon color thread is? It looks fantastic on your mini, and your quilting is so fun! It's going to be the perfect size and color to serve as a "mug rug" for a pitcher of Gin and Tonics and some frosty glassware :)
What a fun little quilt! Lime Sherbet is lovely.
Fun quilting! Fun backing! Fun dreami project!
The quilting looks great! Hope you have a chance to finish it off today.
Like I said on IG, I am in love! It's the quintessential summer quilt and your quilting just fabulous! Thanks for linking it up with DrEAMi!
