The Monterrey Quilt by Melissa dé Leon Mason is the newest pattern to be featured in the Mary Go Round Membership. The Monterrey Quilt uses the Foundation Paper Pieced technique.
Melissa describes the pattern: “Monterrey is a minimalist yet striking design that evokes the sun setting over the Mexican city I visited often as a child. This quilt is made in strips, with a mirrored diamond motif suggesting the colorful tapestries of Mexican textile art.”
The quilt is modern and fresh, and I look forward to making it.Melissa is inspired by traditional Islamic art and modern architecture, and loves to incorporate color, movement, and confusion into her designs. She says she likes color, confusion and doesn’t want to give the eye a place to rest, when designing her quilts She is a talented quilter, pattern designer, and instructor/lecturer.
