Donut Shop Color Option

Quilt tester: Laura Boehnke

Fabrics: Sun Prints 2015 and Sun Prints 2016 collections by Alison Glass for Andover Fabrics

By eliminating the pieced border and adding a high-contrast outer border, quilt tester Laura Boehnke visually created a frame for the pieced blocks. Vivid colors, with an occasional light block added for variety, means the blocks look more like Life Savers candies than donuts.
