Fire and Water |
The
Hunter Star quilt block is beautiful done in red and aqua. These
bright simple prints direct your focus to the overall design instead
of the fabric.
These
pieces sew together precisely so it was easy to match the points.
After sewing the blocks together, I added a 1” border in a white
and red mini dot. The 3” outer border is the same aqua as the
blocks. Backing is a geometric print of white, aqua, red and black.
Fire
and Water is 44” x 56” in size. I quilted with white cotton
thread, using the Elvira ruler to create a curvy design vertically
and horizontally across the blocks. The outer borders are also
stitched with Elvira, this time in two parallel serpentine lines.
I love
how it turned out! One more quilt to add to my ever growing
collection. This time fire and water mix very well indeed.
