A small finish - another Splendid Sampler block. And a big finish - that commission quilt is a top. I'm sandwiching it as you read this. My client saw our June Festival quilt and wanted one like it, but for his favorite team - here's a sample of the University's fabric.
He colored the letter blocks. Fabric markers were used. Then I took an art pencil and went over the red again as the letters looked orange. They looked fine by themselves. It was the deepness of the other red fabric that made them look that way.

ReplyDeleteI plan on starting a new sewing project this weekend, maybe even today! I want to make a mini quilt to hang on my wall to remind me that spring is coming...yes, I know it's September, but we have a very long, cold winter ahead of us here in the Midwest. A pretty wall hanging with spring flowers will keep my soul warm during the winter!
