It’s so pretty though. Love the colors too.

It will look great when done! And the white space gives it a modern touch. You could also add appliqué flowers or other sprinkled down the white space if you wanted something extra, though not needed :)

Wooooowww! There is so much color theory and planning that went into that quilt. That’s really something!

As a longarmer I like that the bias cuts are on the inside. Less risk of wavy borders ☺️

Baby and lap quilts are a great way to have fun sewing without out it being a major project. I love making snackable quilts! Happy sewing!🧵

I am guessing soft is key unless you have an industrial machine

What a great idea!! Are you sewing through the cotton clothesline as well as you go? I wonder if Jute cord would also work. It would dry faster than a cotton core after washing but may be tougher to sew through a has the potential to shred. I have big roll that I’ve been wondering what to do with

Oh I want to try this. What are you using inside the rings? Are you pre-making a stuffed tube of sorts? What a great distraction. The news seems to get more bizarre and horrifying with each passing day

What I do is line up the fold to a horizontal line on the ruler and only cut one fat quarter at a time. Some folks stack them and it does work, but if you want total accuracy one at a time gives you more control IMO.

I think both are great because it’s what the quilter chose! That’s what’s so great about quilting and any art form—there is no right or wrong, only what’s right for them.

Exactly! Art belongs to us all!

Same

Haha quite the opposite, it’s pretty fool-proof, if you remember to count… I’ve accidentally cut a strip our two a half inch short. But with a little applied mindfulness, it becomes a breeze!

Exactly! And when I’m not using that, I use a big fat handle on my 8.5 x 24” ruler to protect my finders lol

Love that quilters came together to find a creative way to get their voices heard. Thank you for sharing!
