Benartex sent me some of their sun drenched Bali batiks and asked me to think of a way to make a traditional block modern. I thought of Log Cabins. They're traditional, very traditional, right? Here is a quilt I made last year with black, grays and red. Small blocks!

Modern by the Yard eMagazine:

This is a
FREE eMagazine. And the cover is beautiful:
Check it out via the Benartex blog website:
Sew in Love with Fabrics. There are FIVE free patterns in this issue. What are you waiting for?
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love it, Debby! I saw your pattern when I downloaded the emag yesterday. With its myriad of gems, Fractured Jewels will be a great home for sashing and binding "leftovers." (janeherbst at roadrunner dot com).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up. I had forgotten about this magazine.
