Altered Squares (Little Black Dress)

machine quilting close-up

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Quilting Quickly: Patterns, Techniques & Tips »

Instructions

I got this machine quilted (by mail) through Missouri Star Quilt Co, using the Dense Leaves pattern

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Unisex

Style: Retro / Vintage, Mod, Classic


Materials

Little Black Dress layer cake by Moda, black Kona border

What was your inspiration?

definitely the craftsy course; I love the look of the diamond pattern that comes out on the altered squares design.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is SO EASY, it took me only a day to make the entire thing. Definitely sort your layer cake into dark and light, and try to match the dark with the light whenever you can.
