Midwest Metro Link
I love this quilt and am so glad it is staying at our house.Thank you to Carla for suggesting purple for the binding. I knew that was the only option as soon as I read her comment. I found Kona Berry, and it is my new favorite color!I especially love how it looks with the Word Play fabric I chose for the back of the quilt.I stuck to straight line quilting, and it reminds me of fold lines on a paper map as well as city intersections. The metro link pattern is by Paisley Pear Quilts, and I wrote about the process of making this quilt here, here, and here.

That looks great! Just the right amount of color!
Wonderful quilt! And I agree the berry is a wonderful binding!
totally stunning!
Incredible quilt! You're right about the binding. Purple is perfect!
Wow! What a beautiful quilt. It's amazing how that binding just finishes it off!
A spectacular finish! I love the binding color and the picture with the matching flowers in the back (how lovely!).
I remember when you started this quilt at a KCMQG Sewing day...so happy to see it "all grown up"! I LOVE the Berry Binding and I LOVE the fact that you get to keep it for yourself!
Hope to see it in person at a future show and tell!
Woo Hoo! It looks awesome! I hope to see it at guild next month. What a fun quilt!!
It is a great looking quilt! Definitely a keeper.
Just love this!! You're right - that purple is perfect for it. Looks really cool with the blossoms on the tree, too. ;D
Perfection! It's beautiful!
Gorgeous quilt, and the purple binding is perfect. I love the way you have quilted it too.
Wow! That purple binding is the perfect choice for such a gorgeous quilt. Yum!
what a great quilt
Amazing! And you are right....that is the perfect binding. Hopefully I can see it in person at the next meeting!
It turned out so beautifully! I just finished catching up - so many projects that I missed with my nose in the books... The scarf, the mug rug for your dad, your bee blocks and that brown and blue beauty! I'm more than crushing on your kaleidoscope quilt, too.
Missed ya!
Love this! so beautiful :)
