Show Pin Quilt
27 X 27" Square Wall Quilt or 17 1/2 X 36" Banner Quilt
Friday, August 29, 2009 9:00 am
Materials:
8 Fat Quarters for quilt center, diamonds and binding. Only 4 Fat Quarters are needed for the banner style quilt but 8 FQs gives a better color variety.
3/4 yard for borders and diamond background. If you would like your binding to match your borders, get 1/3 yard more.
Batting - use a low loft, stable one. A cotton or cotton blend works well. A 32" square of batting is needed for the square quilt and a
22 X 40" rectangle for the banner version.
1-1/2 yards medium weight fusible interfacing.
Backing: 1 yard of material for the square quilt or 5/8 yard for the banner style quilt is needed. NOTE: you can use the leftovers from the 8 Fat Quarters to piece a back for either quilt.
A yardstick from your local hardware store makes a great hanger for the quilt!
NOTE: The model quilt was made with hand dyed fabrics from Starr Design Fabrics; www.starrfabrics.com Hand dyed fabrics, solid colors or most solid colors work best. Your pin collection might get lost on small prints.
