Vivid Quilt
Monday, April 20th, 2009I love how this quilt is bright, but not annoying because the blocks are monochromatic.

I love the quilted bubbles and waves!
There’s a store we always pass when we go to town to shop. I stumbled upon its’ website today while looking for sewing machine shops in the area: Mary Jos Cloth Store.
Oh dear. *drool*
This looks like a good introduction to paper piecing: Spiderweb Quilt.
The kit for this quilt was given to me as a Christmas gift in 2005. I worked on it in bits and pieces over the years, mostly blundering my way through the quilt making process as a learning process. I gave the finished piece to my mother as a Mother’s Day gift in 2008, since it was she who gave me the kit as a gift.
The binding in this picture is horrible, as that was the one thing I couldn’t figure out how to do. Thankfully, another Mother’s Day gift (the Emmeline Apron) taught me how I should have done the binding, so I ripped the bad one and redid it before gifting it.
I’m very good at ripping seams now. :P
I simply *must* find the sea turtle cloth used in this quilt: Sea Turtles Lap Quilt.
Made following the Cathedral Window Quilt Tutorial at the Hyena in Petticoats blog.
Some amazing work over at HP Paper Piecing. I really need to learn this technique.
