It is time for the
Bloggers Quilt festival at Amys Creative Side. I always enjoy looking at all the quilts.I haven't entered a quilt in this for ages and decided to enter my umbrella quilts mini this time. I made this mini for me and love it. I think the matchstick quilting is what makes it. The fabrics are gorgeous and are a combination of canvas and cotton. As it is a wall hanging the different fabrics don't matter but the quilting has so much texture you don't notice the different weight of the fabrics.
Here is the link to the
minis
I thought I should edit this to add that the fabric is all from a trimmings pack from Umbrella
Fabrics. They have some really gorgeous fabrics. This is the blue pack.
I love improv and matchstick - absolutely love this!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful combination of fabrics! Did you "qayg"? All the quilting is in all different directions! Fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I did not qayg. I quilted in the ditch to move to next rectangle or started and stopped in each rectangle.
DeleteThe matchstick quilting is very pretty!
ReplyDeleteA lovely combination of colour and fabric.
