Red & White Quilt "Walk This Way" by Carrie Nelson, Quilted by Carrie Straka

This was one of Capt'n John's favorite Red Quilts at Houston 2018. "I loved this quilt for several reasons. The simple but striking design really features the fabrics. When you walk up to it, you actually look at each fabric and the value changes, not just the design. Then using a circular quilting on a pattern of sharp edges was a fun approach. Everything worked for me and I enjoyed just standing there for awhile."

What a great quilt. Can’t wait to make one. Love working with red and beige fabric.

Does anyone know if the pattern "Walk This Way" is available as a pattern?

Lempesis, I am thinking that this quilt is jelly roll friendly. Probably each rectangle is cut 2 1/2 x 4 1/2. Makes the square finish at 4 inches.

Two-color quilts are becoming more and more interesting to me and this is absolutely stunning! I think because of the simplicity. However it would be fun done scrappy too. Downsized to a kid's or baby quilt it could be done in a flash.

I love this quilt cause it gives me an idea of what to do with all the reds I've collected over the years. There is an energy to it, and I kept staring to try and figure out the block pattern. Thank you

Anyone know if there is a pattern for this or how wide the strips are?
