Two Tops For The Week

Posted on January 9, 2016 by quiltpaintcreate

I finished the rectangular nine-patch top last weekend and basted it.  I’m sure there are similar patterns for sale, but this was something I’ve played around with in EQ for many years. I even managed to choose a quilting design. … Continue reading →

Visual Dance: Line

Posted on February 1, 2014 by quiltpaintcreate

The Chapter Two exercises are behind me, and I finished reading Chapter Three last night.  Chapter Two contained an in-depth discussion of line.  When translated into quilting, the discussion turned to sets and orientation. In my favorite exercise, I had … Continue reading →
