Well it is that time again. Quiltmaker has put out another issue in their 100 Blocks series – Volume 6. These magazines are so fun! Can you guess which is mine?
Well, here is a hint. I’ve had a thing for aqua and blue Christmas designs lately. Yes, mine is the white-on-aqua snowflake in the second row. It is on page 42 and is called “Winter’s Jewel.”
I enjoyed making this. The applique and piecing are really simple but, because of the color choices, they look bold. I used some fabrics from Laurie Wisbrun’s Brrr collection and also some neutrals by Patrick Lose, both of which are manufactured by Robert Kaufman.
Winter’s Jewel can be arranged in many ways.
Quilt 1 – no border |
Quilt 2 – on point with white border |
Snowflake Runner or Wall Hanging |
