The Maypole Quilt in Red is complete !! I really like this pattern and I have a couple of inspiration quilts that you might see over time.
I’m not nuts about the specific fabric, but I could see this with sunflowers.
A classic in navy & white.
I’ve been working along on the Kaffe Fassett “square in square” quilt. Here are a few examples of the blocks I’m creating.
The quilt pattern doesn’t call for sashing but I’m going to include sashing ‘cause I don’t like these fabrics butted up to each other. Sashing is a strip of fabric that divide quilt blocks from each other. I haven’t thought too much yet about how I’ll quilt this.
I’m taking an online class - my first quilting class ever ! I’ve been thinking that I need to up my game in terms of different blocks. As I look through the quilts I’ve completed I see lots of simple blocks with a few exceptions. This class is largely about color theory for quilters but incorporates different blocks to create a sampler quilt. A sampler quilt doesn’t use the same block over and over — many sampler quilts use 12 different blocks, but any number of blocks can be used.
Even better, there’s a starter set of fabric and a book. The starter fabric is pictured below. The class starts on 2/19/22 (available on YouTube & Facebook) and I’m looking forward to it.
