That last day of retreat?
You may remember that I went to Tennessee Quilts and came back with a new project to work on. The pattern is One-Fabric Kaleidoscope.
The fabric is Patricia by In The Beginning fabrics.
The quilt is made from octagons cut from eight stacked strips of this border print.
I am making it larger than the pattern and this is where I am so far.
Still need to stitch the diagonal rows. My blocks came out too small (I think the cutting instructions were a little ambiguous about how big to cut the border print strips) so I did some trimming and now some of my block intersections are a bit wonky. After I cut the borders I may have enough fabric to replace some wonky blocks. More later.
Family visiting here and it may be a few days before I get back to sewing.
Wow! That was some speedy sewing! I can't believe how far along your 'new project' is already!
ReplyDeleteAnd what a revelation about using a border print to cut kaleidoscope blocks!
That is wonderful border fabric and looks like a fun project. How large will it be? marlene@coveredinstitches.com
