Low Volume Plus Sew Along



My friend Laila, who blogs at Litamora's Quilt & Design, has invited her blog readers to join in a fun Sew Along, no rules!  You can visit her blog post to find out more about it here.  I chose to make my blocks using 2 1/2" strips and there is a great tutorial on how to make this Plus block on Kviltstina's blog here. She gave us permission to use her pattern image.  She also has a tutorial on how to make mini version here. I'm not sure how I'll lay mine out yet, I'll see how many I end up making first!  If you want to join in Laila has created a hashtag so we can see what you're making too if you are on Instagram.  #plusquiltsewalong2016

I had cut a box full of 2 1/2" strips of batik fabrics so just started grabbing from that box and from a green batik bundle I had.  I think mine will be all blues and greens so quite different from the other participants.

  1. Oh how pretty! The blue and green combination in batiks will be really nice. I'm hopping over now to check out those blogs.

  3. Those are looking great. I have a bit of a batik bias myself, so bonus points for that.
