Created for Project Quilting 17.1 Clean Slate challenge.
Last summer I got an inkling to make a low volume quilt. Low volume has never been my thing. But I made one. And then I made another one. And another and another until suddenly there were 8. I was thinking maybe just 1 more before going back to my usual lots of color style. Then this challenge came out. It was telling me it was time to wipe the slate clean and go on to my next thing. I had recently seen a picture with drunkard's path blocks put together to make flowers and knew it was time to play with it.
So I drafted a drunkard's path block and ended up with this quilt. I thought I was making a table runner, but now am thinking maybe I'll hang it lengthwise. And, if I'd used a softer yellow instead of gold, I'd have made another low volume quilt. Hmmmm.
I think drunkard's paths might be my next series.....

Speaking from experience, drunkard's path blocks can be addictive and fun, and I love this table runner or wall hanging (however you decide to use it). Delightful response!
