Finished Quilt - Hive 1 2026 Feb block

 


Hi All,

Meet: 'It's Complicated...'; 60" x 70".

Thank you so much everyone from 2026 Hive 1 for helping me getting this done!

It was real fun to play with the layout of the blocks I received - as you can see, I settled on a classic rainbow, top to bottom, setting. I kept the quilting simple, as this is to be a 'use-quilt' for my BIL (60th next month), just stich-in-the-ditch around the bands and then a rainbow radiating out from the bottom left, each 'ring' in a different gradating rainbow colour.
Really hope it turned out 'butch' enough and will appeal to my BIL!

Happy quilting,
Rita

Wow, this is so cute. A great example of using a simple shape to make a complicated overall design. Congrats on the finish.
