I
nearly forgot about this little remnant quilt! I sewed it back in
October, then put it away without sharing it on the blog.
The
fabric in this reversible table mat reminds me of vintage brocade.
The muted brown, tan, green, and rose colors work beautifully with
black accents.
I used isosceles triangles plus half square triangles to make kaleidoscope blocks
for one side. The reverse is half-square triangles of the brocade
print with black gingham, plus two borders.
I
did all the piecing on Violet, our restored and painted Singer 99.
She's a joy to sew with. Quilting was fun with free motion meandering
stitches in tan thread using the Janome.
Times
Past is 24½” square,
an old fashioned classic look for a change of pace.
