| What a great example of taking a commercial pattern and giving yourself to it. Luscious reds and white combine with cotton, silk, velvet and wool - pieced to perfection! Sweet!  |

This is the place where I make my marks and leave my impressions on fiber and paper and all things mixed media. It's the story of my art journey, my successes and failures, my challenges and simple joys . "The world is full of magic things patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper." W.B. Yeats

This quilt looks awesome! Such pretty colors! Love it!
ReplyDeleteYou don't need a commercial pattern to do this kind of thing - working totally template free is very liberating - aka 'improvisational piecing', contact me if you want basic 'how to' instructions emailed - they're free.
ReplyDeleteHi Alison! Yes, I know that but I'm identifying here how this one was made. Eileen used a pattern from "Vivacious Curvy Quilts" by Maxine Rosenthal. As for myself, I've never used a pattern in my life! But maybe some of my blog readers will want to contact you at alison.schwabe@gmail.com
