Here a couple more from the Modern Traditionalism section:
Dora Cary says Patch Nine came about when she was asked to make a quilt using Carolyn Friedlander fabrics and that she loves orange. She feels the quilt has a minimalist vibe arising from the neutral centres and sophisticated fabrics.
The Ripple Effect is by Janice Ryan who writes "[It] is a variation on the half square triangle block. One block is repeated throughout the quilt to create vibration and movement."

Modern Tradionalism quilts at QuiltCon
| I think this is Stacy Day's Corsage created for the Riley Blake Challenge with Amy Gunson's Roundabout pattern as the design source. There were several versions of this one. |
| Karin Jordan's Melon Wedding Ring The melon shapes were cut out with a Sissix plate from roughly pieced strips. |
| Wildfire by Kirsty Cleverly Log Cabin in 2 colours in varying proportions set on point; asymmetric design morphing from light to dark |
| Detail of Blue Spiderweb |
| Leslie Schmidt: Blue Spiderweb She enjoyed making this exuberant version of this traditional pattern in which the blocks spiral out of control. |
| Detail of Dunes |
| Dunes by Jenna Brand inspired by Latifah Saafir's Glam Clam quilt pattern but with improvised curved inserts. |
| This is a "don't know" |
| I think this is by Latifah Saafir, She is the inspiration behind many bold interpretations of curved patterns. |
| Shades of a distant Lancaster by Tomi Levin, a controlled improvisation of the Amish style using favourite solids. |
| Blueberries for Sal by Elisa Albury Deconstructed Bear's Paw blocks: two "children" get separated from their mothers. |
| Christa Watson: Focal Point made following advice to go more asymmetrical, create a cropped design and include a focal point. |
| I think this is Kristen Shields' Fruity Star in which the solids are string pieced with neutrals so that the tips might disappear giving the impression of the star floating on the background. |
