Here is my interpretation of the Amish bar quilt modernized. This is my mini challenge quilt and was fun to make. After piecing the middle section together, I knew I wanted to do a "wide" border in orange and this fabric practically jumped out of the drawer at me. I held it up to the middle section and was sold immediately that this was the right fabric. When I was pressing it, I realized that it is orange, white and brown - not black - I looked to see if there was anything else I wanted to use and nope - not a thing jumped out at me. So, this one it is and even close up, it looks almost black and is perfect for this little quilt top. Now to get it quilted, bound and labeled. Thank you for the challenge Victoria. I have always wanted to make a bar quilt, but just haven't gotten around to it.
