What
a fun quilt to make! I've seen this die but didn't realize it had
been discontinued. I was lucky to find a new one in original
packaging on Facebook Marketplace a couple of weeks ago. Thanks Marilyn!
This
block is easy to sew and the curves stitch up beautifully. I started with the black batik, then picked teal,
lime, and cream fabric out of my stash to give a clear contrast in the circles.
After
adding backing and batting, I quilted with khaki thread across the
circles with 3 lines of ruler stitching in waves. Once that was done,
I added free motion stitching on the cream sections.
Rolling
Along finished at 48” square. I've already designed a few more
color combinations in EQ8. It will make an adorable baby quilt.
By the way, how did it get to be September already?
