The Palo Verde Patchers held their quilt show last weekend. There were so many beautiful quilts! I though5 you might enjoy seeing some of them also. Enjoy!
This quilt spent months in my head, much longer than it took to actually make it.
I used these design boards to quilt it. It was the first time I used this set and almost immediately regretted it. But there is a lot of back tracking so there was no ripping happening.
I used 50 weight Glide Thread and should have used the thinner 60 weight. What I really should have done, is gone with my gut and quilted simple horizontal lines.
I love the design, just not on this quilt. I do love the plaid I found for the back!
And this alphabet print for the binding.
This was made to go with the bunting I made last month.
My local quilt group is holding a panel challenge. They had a bunch of panels to choose from at the last meeting. The idea is that we each come up with a plan and then work on our tops at the next sew day. All quilts will be donated. This is the one I chose.
Panels can be tricky to use. I’ve been looking back at some previous quilts I’ve done to try to find some inspiration.
