I had just returned from Florida in April
and Ohio was on a "safer at home" order.
Kim Hensley suggested, since we can't get
together and sew...let's "sewcial distance" and together
make a quilt!
make a quilt!
I had seen this free pattern by Erica at Kitchen Table Quilting
called Plaid-ish....we both loved it and the fun began.
This picture is Erica's Plaid-ish quilt.
We setup a schedule and checked each other at the
end of the week for our goal.
It was "scrappy" and we BOTH have lots of scraps.
We needed 3 color values...
Medium...Low Volume...Dark
These are the Low Volume Blocks
Medium Value (or Brights) Blocks
Dark Value Blocks
The process went pretty fast...considering
there were 567 pieces and 37 Blocks
This is Kim's finished Plaid-ish Quilt.
Longarmer, Quilting by David
Kim used a solid Anna Marie Horner print for the back.
This is my Plaid-ish Quilt
a Celtic Sea design.
The Plaid-ish quilts finish at 64" x 82" of awesomeness!

It's a great stash buster and a 'genius' idea!
PS I am now on Erica's Pattern Tester List!
They are both just fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThose are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI like the way they both turned out. I'll have to check out the pattern and perhaps it will get added to my To Make list.
