Rhonda Bracey: At Random

What a bright and cheerful quilt this was! I started by stitching in the ditch around all the main elements. I stitched large bubbles/circles in the yellow sections, and a checkerboard effect in the red. I left the black squares unstitched. In the borders, I outline stitched the black stripes, and finally did a large meandering stipple in the outer border, leaving the black border unstitched.
