CVQ Mystery Quilt 2016 - Japanese Theme

My Mystery Quilt in 2016 was made in Japanese blue fabrics.  This Challenge was set by Chris O’Brien and of course, as we finish one instruction, we have no idea what the next will be - will it all work out and look good - or will we finish up with something that resembles a dog’s breakfast? Along the way, Chris was intrigued with my interpretations and encouraged me that “yes”, I’m on the right track - keep with the Challenge and see how it unfolds. Mind you, because we didn’t know what the next instruction was, we couldn’t plan ahead.

In the end, it all turned out ok!

The instructions included:

Round 1: Create a circle

Round 2: Set your circle into an interesting bordered background

Round 3: Next border is to include sets of squares or rectangles, offset by circles

Round 4: Next border must include some curves which connect back to your centre

Round 5: Next border is to include some triangles but set in waves

And this is my interpretation of the instructions:
