This is Lorna’s Saturday Surprise quilt and it was a 2012 BOM project. Lorna decided to put her blocks on point and added the criss cross sashing design which looks fantastic in the two colors giving it a woven effect. The fabric choices are brilliant and the cool mint green with the red is stunning.
**For those of you that are wanting to find this pattern the shop that did the BOM no longer offers it as the shop as changed ownership. So please do not email me asking for the pattern as I did not make it, I just quilted it! Please use the photos as inspiration to making your own**
She asked for custom quilting and to just have fun with it so I did! I started with the Beadboard design in the outer border, used my channel locks on my Millennium for this design. Then quilted feathers in the setting triangles, curls in the sashing and various designs in the blocks and keep the quilting light. SID on the sashing strips and around the blocks.
Lorna brought extra wide Stonehenge backing which is one of my favorites to quilt on as it is so soft and shows off the quilting very well.
A wonderful quilt, I like the criss cross sashing. And your quilting is great!

Deletemade some progress on finding individual blocks last night and also making blocks to match with EQ7. Will let you all know when I get it done. Don't hold your breath might take a while. Wish I had better pics of the whole quilt. Hard to see the top blocks.

Deletewas able to make all but the top 3 blocks on this quilt in EQ7. will try these three but they are very difficult to see because of the angles of the full quilt pics. Trying my best. Made them all 12" with out tripple sashing. Anyone have any ideas what these three blocks are
ReplyDeleteWill you let me send me what you have been able to figure out?
DeleteI would just like to know how to do the sashing around the blocks, I've never seen that before!
