Here is a photo of my latest pot holder quilt, "Pan Blackened Applique". This one will be at A Quilter' Gathering IN Manchester, NH the first weekend in November. Love that show!
I like to make the backs interesting too.
Here's a close up. The corners on the scallops were tricky but I love the outcome.
I try to make some sort of cooking reference in their titles. Ironic that I like the pot holder method so much since I hate to cook! I am on my 12 pot holder now. Some nut who shall remain nameless (Pam Weeks) challenged me to make a Dear Jane in the pot holder method and my dear friend Cyndi enabled me by finding me the perfect background fabric so... I have 52 blocks done so far. Photos to follow.
wow I have been looking for white shirtings I have to see if Cyndi has any more :)
ReplyDeleteok this is adorable! I love the back and the fabrics on the right side on the back top one and the one under neath it on the right incredible fabrics. long gone I know i had snippets of them from Judy's stash

Cyndi says Jo Morton is coming out with a new shirtings line so I'll let you know when she gets them. Some of mine are well over 20 years old. I don't know what got me started on the neons (AKA illumineries) but I can't stop collecting them. We are off to see the RI quilts at NEQM tomorrow. Can't wait and hope to post some photos of them.
DeleteI want to try your potholder method so I will order the book you suggeste in the Celebrate Hand Applique group. I love this quilt with the scallops!! One question, how well do the hold up in the wash??
