Holiday quilt

August 26, 2009

As you can see my holiday quilt is progressing. I am ready to make the blocks up now. As I want to make the quilt larger I will need to add fabric to the kit. I don't have any appropriate hand dyed fabrics but the very dark batik looks pretty good. Initially I thought about just adding borders but I think it will look more planned if I use the batik in the centers of the blocks too. It will make my version a bit darker and I suspect more extreme. I think those are assets, so time to cut the batik.I spoke to a lot of ladies about the APQS machines at the show, don't forget to drop me an email and I will put you in touch with the UK rep.
