Another of my Swiss Chocolate quilt, “White Chocolate”, appears in Fons and Porter’s Easy Quilts Summer Issue.
Directions didn’t fit in the magazine, but if you are subscriber, you can go over to their website and download them.
I wish you could see the quilting on this in more detail. Janice Hayes did a fantastic job on this one. The brown bars look dimensional, the crea print is heaiviy quilted, and there is a flower motif quilted in each central block. I will post a picture from the back once it arrives home.
I am washing and ironing at least a hundred yards of fabric this weekend. Literally. Can’t wait to cut into it!
This project has been sitting, cut out, in our living room for months. Literally months. This past weekend I finally finished it.
None of you have project like this, right? Projects where you just lose steam can’t seem to pick them up again? I love this Amy Butler bag pattern, and I love the way the chocolate fabrics look in it, but I just couldn’t get my act together. Something else was always calling.
Well, of course, if it was a real, organic garden tended to by me it would be brown because, with my horticultural skills (or lack thereof), everything would be dead.
But my fabic garden is much more colorful. Here is how it looks in the warm sun…
And here is how it looks on cool nights… (This is theoretical, of course, because we don’t have many of those here in Charlotte.)
