Recipe for Blended 4 patch:
This is the post with details. From March 2020.
For all applique patterns here: These are simply the drawings I worked with. You will need to save, and print. Then trace off the individual pieces for use.
"Rudy" pattern page 1 for small table top banner. Approximately 12" by 14". Be sure to reverse for fusible applique.
The dashed line is the outer edge of my banner.
"Rudy" pattern page 2 Be sure to reverse for fusible applique.
The dashed line is the seam line of the border added to the top and left side. The antlers extend over the seam line into the border.
The Tissue Box Owl. Be sure to reverse for fusible applique.
String Quilt Layout
used for Faceted Jewels Quilt
This is a guide--road map--that you can color in to develop a color scheme. I used black for the diagonal through each block, and one side of the diagonal was a color and the opposite side another. Any color diagonal will work....white will give a softer effect overall.
Tip for this: I marked the foundation fabric with the color before I began stitching. That allowed me to chain piece several of each color family at a time.

This diagram / pattern should give you a full page of drawing practice before you begin to stitch on fabric.

ReplyDeleteVery nice patterns. Thank you for sharing your talents. I like your blog very much
Good morning! I have "studied" your tutorials repeatedly because I have wanted to do a colorwash/watercolor quilt for years. Do you ever do classes?

I adore your evening serenade bargello quilt and would love the pattern if it is for sale. Thank you for sharing your exquisite quilts. Lesley
ReplyDeleteLesley, you are a no-reply commenter. So I can't contact you. Either change your profile to link to your email or use my email on the side bar. The quilt you refer to is from Eleanor Burns book Quick Trip around the World. It is based on the Quick Quarter Trip technique. The appliques are fused and the frog is done with thread painting using about 15 shades of thread.
ReplyDeleteReally like your ideas
