Meg’s Garden | Quilt 💐

Kellie Wulfsohn of Don’t Look Now created a stunning piece with her sensational applique flowers, butterflies and ladybugs. You’ll be thrilled to learn that it’s not a difficult project.

Kellie employed a free-machine raw-edge applique technique and two thicknesses of batting to create her quilt, but if you prefer to stitch by hand, that will work just as well. No matter the method, your finished quilt will be a tour de force.

Winding Our Way | Patchwork Quilt 🏡

Clare Mooney was intrigued by the graphic impact of the traditional Winding Ways patchwork block. She hand pieced her quilt in elegant blue and white, using a wide assortment of reproduction fabrics, as well as a variety of cream and white prints to add subtle interest.

It’s easy to make it in any size you like - but it’s certainly no weekend project: Clare’s quilt is made from 2280 patches!
