0 dots {a finished quilt}

Unfortunately I'm incredibly useless when it comes to naming my quilts so this one is simply called Dots :) If you, however, have a good name for this quilt please let me know, I would love your input.

This quilt is all about  Kona Snow, a variety of low volume fabrics for the sashing, and a few pretty scraps.

I fused my circles (using Heat n Bond) to the background and did two rows of stitching all the way around the circles. Easy peasy :)

I then did an uneven, sort of wonky cross hatch quilting all over which gave the quilt a beautiful texture and feel.

Finished size of this quilt is 51" x 57".

I'm thinking a similar quilt showcasing my few very precious Munki Munki scraps would definitely be a great idea. If only there were more than 24 hours in a day :)

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend. Svetlana

0 large patchwork quilt

So, I had this idea of making a quilt using big rectangular blocks of some of my very favorite fabrics and arranging them in a simple patchwork pattern.

I started off by pulling lots of different fabrics from my stash, finally settling on this combination of flowers, stripes, gingham, and dots.

I cut each square at 12" x 15".  As you can imagine, this quilt top came together incredibly quickly.

I then quilted it with straightish lines about 1/2" - 3/4" apart. Did I ever tell you how much I enjoy straight line quilting? Well, I do. Very much, I actually find it very therapeutic and soothing. I hope this does not sound too crazy :)

All those lines were totally worth it as the texture of the quilt is fantastic. I can't help but touch it every time I pass by it.

 Finished quilt measures about 57" x 70".

Wishing you all a very lovely rest of the weekend. Svetlana
