Every time I demo QAYG techniques, I'm left with lots of lovely quilted blocks. Last October, I came up with the bright idea of using colours that work together so that eventually, I would end up with a finished quilt....all be it a mixed bag of QAYG techniques. I am of the school of thought that mixing several techniques adds interest to the quilt.
As these blocks were created rather quickly....(during the workshops or demo, improv is the way to go). I used the following techniques (Just look under tutorials at the top of the page for tutorials on all the different techniques):
- Stitch 'n Flip
- QAYG Borders
- Joining with Wide Strips
- Joining with Narrow Strips
- Spiral Quilting
Quilt Back....
Joining the rows...
So much easier with a little Elmer's Glue.
And, I have a lovely little great niece to give this quilt to.....
Clever and practical - great to see your mojo returning (warmest blessings to you Marianne)
