From My Magazine Days, Day Four
Day Four. Same magazine issue! Here are 2 more quilts to inspire you. This is Garden Walk for Windham Fabrics. I used a traditional appliqué pattern of a basket and some dancing leaves. Dancing leaves?

Let's see one more quilt. This is a set of 6" paper pieced Palm blocks that I set into a pillow. I used some lovely batiks in Autumn colors. Not sure where this pillow is now, but it was fun to make.

| Palm block pillow with flange: 24" x 24" |
You can find my Palm quilt pattern in my Etsy shop for 7" blocks. Paper piecing is easy using pre-cut strips.
This is how my quilt appears:

Yes, I have the last 2 quilts to share tomorrow. And I'll still be in the same magazine issue!
I like the way you use a different number of blocks, so different settings, that other people don't often use. It inspires me to see that.
ReplyDeleteYes, I like to share all the different ways our blocks can be arranged. I like to get beyond the expected. I've given two lectures to local guilds in the past 2 weeks and that was what really inspired them and gave them renewed energy.
