At Paddington Patchworkers Rae’s been busy, finishing all her blocks, appliqueing them to their backgrounds, and tweaking Sue’s basic pattern by adding a bias striped sashing for a little extra pizzazz.
Finally, here are mine, nowhere near as complete as Rae’s fabulous work, some of them only pinned together, and none yet attached to their backgrounds of plain white squares alternating with a black-on-white spot.
The final step for all of us will be to sew an appliquee border onto this central 9-patch, to bring it all together.
One of the other quilts Sue’s been teaching in our class is Strawberry Shortcake. Di B has called her version Lemon Cheesecake, created in vibrant blues, yellows and greens.
When those sashings of 4-patches set on point are all in place this quilt will be so crisp and fresh and lemony – yummm!
Wonderful! These are SO neat! Di B - Yours is simply scrumptious! I want to take it home and hang it near the summer patio!
