Maps


I've always loved maps. Here's a quilt I made inspired by the grids of city maps. This actually started out trying to be an 'inspired by Lisa Call' quilt but then the map thing started to happen. I started using curvey freeform piecing but that was taking ages so I made the last 2 block with straight lines - at the moment I don't think the curvey lines add anything. I'm going to made another one with more blocks and try and get the streets to line up. I like the way the eye follows the streets but gets a surprise when the colours change.
