No rule quilting

Instructions

I got precut batik blocks from ebay. The colors were alredy put together. I pick one color and that was the outer boarder. I did cut the outer boader on two sides to short, so I worked with it.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Unisex


Materials

5" quilting blocks. Batiks

What was your inspiration?

The colors

What are you most proud of?

Getting it done.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

On your first quilt get pre cut blocks. I just made sure they were well mixed. When starting out do what you want. get to know your sewing machine, becaues when you are done the mistakes is what makes it one of a kind. Your family will not care you didn't go by the rules.

I'm sorry I took so long to thank you for the best buy. I just founded this part of craftsy. I did to quilts with your blocks. The other one was the blue tones. I had to stoe going on ebay, because I love batik. Your blockes were so clear. I even searched for you later. I have a hard time controling myself when it comes to Batiks. Thank you very much

Love this one! I just bought some 5" blocks and didn't know what to do with them, but, I found some squares to make with 2 1/2"x 2 1/2" squares, so I did that, but, if I'd have seen this one sooner, this would have been the PERFECT pattern to do with all those blocks! And much quicker, I'm sure. Good job..looks great! Even looks like you did your own top stitching! I'm just starting out on that...still have a lot to learn with it.
