Oh,
I love this adorable quilted mat! I've been on a roll with curves
lately.
A
classic color combination of clear navy blue and crisp white fabric is
perfect here. The design is created with a new die from Blue Wren,
called Wave Peak.
The
small 4” blocks fit together like a puzzle to form a lovely wave or braid.
I set them on point, then filled in the outside with white setting triangles.
For
quilting, I used a straight stitch and white thread with a walking
foot, following around the curves. On the outside edges I added two
rows of echo curves.
Braided
Blue is only 23” square, since I wanted table mat or small wall
hanging size. A larger quilt can be made by adding another round of
the braids.
So
cute and so much fun to make! I'll be experimenting with this
die to create borders or combine with other blocks.
