I heart fabric

Posted on September 14, 2010 by Patti

Choosing fabrics for a particular quilt is always one of the best parts of making it.  I constructed these blocks from leftover triangles and happened to place them on the floor near some newly purchased fabric.  That new fabric became the background for this.  Happy accidents are the best!  Now I like to lay my blocks on all kinds of fabrics, even those that I would not normally try.  You never know.  This is Stacey’s quilt.

About Patti

Fabric designs are amazing. They are like paint, but with details. I sort of have a thing for repetitive design. My favorite part of making quilts is the selection of fabrics. Every city I have lived in...people compliment me on my fabric choices. I have taught classes on this aspect and won a number of awards for my quilts. It is my desire to come alongside quilters who are shy about fabric selection and help teach them to look at things differently so as to become more confident in their own choices.
