EASY SUMMER FUN #261

Summer Fun 1

 

LEVEL – Beginner.

SIZE – 60″ x 71″

Summer Fun 2

This is truly a beginners project using one easy block, to produce this wall or throw quilt.

Different Kaffe prints in the sample quilts here make it sizzle and putting it “On Point” just adds more interest.
Both the focus and background blocks start with 10″ squares making an efficient use of fabric.

Two versions of this quilt are included in the pattern.

I would love to see different versions of this quilt-perhaps without using Kaffe fabrics or black and white as the background squares.

Email me your version.

I have used an extra wide binding for this quilt with a narrow false border just inside the binding.

Full instructions with diagrams included if you have not done this before.

DREAM BIG – HOFFMAN DIGITALLY PRINTED FABRIC PANEL. #264

AURORA

ROSE

OPAL

This is a panel that lends itself to practice your free motion quilting skills and patterns whether you are a relative beginner or have some prior experience.

I sandwiched the panel using two layers of batting. This allows the areas that you do not free motion quilt to puff up and give your flower more dimension. I used the temporary spray adhesive. Having no safety pins in the work is a bonus!

I then chose three colours or shades of embroidery thread to quilt the panel. The panel changes colour or shades as you work your way out to the edges. One of your threads could be your bobbin thread throughout the project.

I simply outlined the petals and echoed that outline on the INSIDE of each petal. I made the echo wider as I got out to the larger petals.

On the blue/purple panel, called AURORA, I simply played with different feathers or feather related patterns in each petal.

On the pink panel, called ROSE, I played with different patterns, sometimes splitting the petal down the middle with a vein and doing a different pattern in each half.

The third panel for sale is unquilted and is called, OPAL.

If you look at my quilted panels you will find that they are far from perfect but I thoroughly enjoyed quilting both and found that having the small areas to quilt simply liberated my pattern choices.
Just have fun girls and don’t over worry about it. Simply treat it as a practice piece and you will be surprised with the end result.

Each panel comes 44″ wide and is 1 1/4 yds long. Aurora, Rose or Opal.

Price $16.00 a panel and $2.00 shipping.

This is a version of the two tote bags above but instead of using 11 jelly rolls we simply use fabric yardage for the outside of the bag.
This allows us to tailor our bag to our preferences. Example. Oriental fabrics with Coy fish or Cranes around the pocket and on the back for the pizazz. I have used Hawaiian fabric flowers for one bags applique pizazz.

You will be so pleased with this bag you will want to make more of them so it is a great stash burner.

Stormy Weather (253)

253253 Level- Intermediate

Size- 51″x60″

This quilt was made with only ONE graduating fabric from the Gelato line by Elite and so all the shades co-ordinate. The centers of all the diamonds are made from one piece of fabric that you make. Strips are then added to two sides of each diamond, in log cabin fashion until you reach the size needed.
I think there is a lot of depth and interest in each block and ALL are different. We use two thin strips of the fabric side by side to form the colored border which changes shades and shines as it goes around the quilt. I also like the quilt turned on it’s side ! What do you think?

Placemats & Napkins (252)

252252Level – Intermediate

Place Mats: 12 1/2″ x 17 1/2″
Napkins- 17 1/2″ x 17 1/2″

These were made to highlight the beautiful gradations in the Gelato fabrics by Elite.
The appliques on each placemat are made from the same fabric as the placemat so that the colors always coordinate.

There are six different flower appliques included to choose from . A delight to
put on the table and makes a nice change from a quilt to showcase our skills.

Ombre Overload (250)

DSCF1328 - CopyLevel – Intermediate

Size 48″x60″

I used six different graduating fabrics from the Gelato line by Elite.
I strip pieced 2 fabrics and the background fabrics together with “gentle” curves( no templates used) to form a strip approximately 7″x21″ (half the width
of the fabric).
I then cut these made fabric strips into 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ or 6 1/2″x 12 1/2″ or
6 1/2″ x 18 1/2″ blocks.
All these of course fit together easily to produce a random woven look.
One of the graduating fabrics is used as a border which showcases its change of
shades beautifully as it goes around the quilt.

Such fun to make.
