Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Craftsy Block of the Month 2012 »

Instructions

I wanted a bigger quilt so I added an additional 10 blocks....Now to add the backing and batting and quilt along using Leah Day's methods....Can hardly wait to get her done!

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Whimsical, Mod, Traditional, Funky, Classic


Materials

A variety of black whites and red material - thread and templates.

What was your inspiration?

I have always wanted to make a red, white and black quilt.

What are you most proud of?

The blocks turned out beautiful - although I did modify some of them - englarged others and added different colored borders. Still have lots of work to do but will post more photos as I begin to quilt.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

There are no such things as mistakes.....follow your passion and most importantly - create and have fun!

I am a bright color girl but I must say that in this particular quilt (2012 BOM), the black, red and white fabric choices really make this quilt shine. Very nice work and thank you for sharing it with us!

Wonderful! The black, red and white is an absolute knock-out! Good luck with the FMQ - you'l find Leah's class is excellent! Looking forward to seeing how you get on!
