Originally I was just going to make blocks and stack them together, but I hadn't pressed any of my seams open and feeling quite lazy this week I didn't want to have to deal with trying to make them match perfectly and the thickness of them so I thought I would add strips between each block and eliminate the problem of sewing a half square triangle seam to another half square triangle seam.
I am hoping to get some time in the next week to write up a mini tutorial on how I made the blocks and put the quilt together.
Lovely!
ReplyDeleteFabulous quilt - just love it!
ReplyDeleteI love how this came out. From a distance it even looks like little Dresden Plates. I started making some of these blocks a couple of weeks ago, sparked by Malka Dubrawsky's (StitchinDye) beautiful quilt, but wasn't sure about how I was going to put them together. Now I will wait for your tutorial (thanks in advance!) and put them together with the sashing as you did. What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pattern - I might use this idea for my youngest's big girl quilt when she reaches a bed. Have been looking for designs that incorporate a fair bit of white with colour :)
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous. Love it.
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful Kate! MUCH better than if you'd just stacked them -- Love the layout!
ReplyDeleteLove it!!! The sashings were a great idea.
