Description:
Color Knots was Gyleen's move into more Modern quilts. Being such a technician with precision though, Gyleen still designed the quilt using a template and made it orderly instead of it being more free-flowing like other Modern quilts. She made it more Modern by eliminating elements and backing off on things she might have put into something more contemporary. To make up for having those empty blocks, Gyleen incorporated a checkerboard quilted pattern to fill out the background.
