Wine Cellar |
Strip quilts are
fast and easy, but still allow for creativity. Wine Cellar brings to
mind sweet sangria and crisp, bubbly spumante.
Coordinating wine and
burgundy 2 1/2” strips are sewn alternately with a subtle cream
print, then trimmed into 8” diagonal squares. The same cream
Sedona print is used for sashing and backing. Quilting is simply stitched
in 1 1/2” parallel rows. The tranquil 43” square would make a
nice wall quilt.
I had a bonus week
since we came home early from camping. After unloading and cleaning
the camper, I spent most of my time sewing, designing, and reading. (Who would
have guessed?) I would sew all day every day if I didn't have to eat
and keep the house clean. And I've found that I can't drink wine while sewing. Too many crooked seams. I'm thankful that my sweetie has hobbies
too, so he understands my addiction to fabric.
