A Patch of Dreams

Posted on April 10, 2016 | Comments Off on A Patch of Dreams

It’s fascinating and fabulous what patchworkers choose as their palette when interpreting their own version of a pattern. When teaching ‘A Patch of Dreams’ table runner as a class at PU, individual colour preferences made each product unique.

Heather's 'Patch of Dreams'

Heather’s vibrant flames come from her amazing stash!

Dianne's 'Patch of Dreams'

Dianne’s ‘all things Paris’ fabric, is soft and calming.

Karin's 'Patch of Dreams'

Karin intends extending this into two panels for a single bed quilt.

Tracey's 'Patch of Dreams'

Tracey will add borders to her double pattern and use it for a wall hanging.

… and the original pattern before quilting.

The Africa Quilt designed by Pauline at PU, has the Pascoe Patchers up to their ‘necks’ in fusible web as the third block is appliquéd down onto their backgrounds.

This time, with such tiny pieces, permanent fusible is being used as a technique instead of blanket stitch appliqué.

Wonder what the next animal will be…

Some are yet to be stitched down with machine blanket stitch – that’s yet more hours of work as the mane is intricate.

‘Autumn Leaves’

Posted on March 29, 2016 | Comments Off on ‘Autumn Leaves’

Yay, another table runner is finished.

'Autumn Leaves'

‘Autumn Leaves’

This one from a class at PU, and made for Dear M-in-L. A quilt-as-you-go project using a very stiff ‘basket’ wadding and 12wt Wonderfill Spagetti thread.

The challenge was in the selection and placement of the fabrics in a geometric fashion, rather than as a log cabin style.
