#18: "Little Black Dress" {July 2012} - UFO


This is a quilt that was to be a background for a photographer but I decided to hang on to it instead. It is slightly larger than a couch throw and smaller than a twin size quilt. I wanted to create something with a faded design that would allow the user the ability to use different sizes for different effects.

#14: "Only If" {March 2012}

Leftover fabric? Me? have you SEEN my Lab? So I had these tiny little 2″x 2″ swatches of the “Good Fortune” by Kate Spain for Moda Fabrics charm pack left over from the “Good Fortune to You and Yours” quilt and I thought these would make a cute mini/wall hanging. I still like the textured “Raw Edge Pez” quilt pattern created by Megan from Canoe Ridge Creations, but reverse it.

Size: 24″ x 24″
Design: Based off the “Raw Edge Pez” quilt pattern created by Megan from Canoe Ridge Creations. Colored pieces are sewn onto a white thick muslin. The ends of the colored squares are frayed to give it more of a texture and a softer feeling. Each square is then quilted twice around in order for it to “puff” up a bit more and make them stand out
Method: Machine pieced and quilted
Backing: Light heather gray background with white tropical/Hawaiian flowers and leaves
Binding: Light heather gray background with white tropical/Hawaiian flowers and leaves
Batting: Warm and Natural 100% cotton
Thread: Gütermann - White
