Recently I had the pleasure of teaching at two wonderful retreats organised by well known British quilter Christine Porter. Held at the well appointed Aztec Hotel, participants enjoyed luxury accommodation while participating in a workshop over three days. As well as presenting my new lecture, 'Colour your World', I taught my class, 'The Painted Landscape' for the first time. I was thrilled with the results and have included some of the work completed by students at the workshop. Some of th

It's been a long time since I've posted anything on the old blog. My excuse is that unpicking old tops and blocks, washing and pressing the pieces, and finally drawing and hand cutting 5,500 little triangles for my latest quilt is taking a very long time. I'm not complaining through -- it's actually a process I enjoy, since it gives me lots of opportunities to admire the designs in the antique fabrics. Since I have nothing to show for all my work except stacks and stacks of triangles, I thought I would share another old quilt booklet. Stitch 'n Patch Quilts is one of my favorites, because most of the patterns are perfect for scrappy quilts. I also like the way the publisher color printed the templates on top of the text, efficiently combining templates and instructions on one page. This booklet contains the pattern I used to make one of my favorite quilts, the Lantern Quilt.

I have chosen this quilt (posted In January, 2009) as my entry in the Park City Girl's Fall Quilt Festival. This pattern is from a 1976 quilt booklet, Stitch 'n Patch Quilts. I love these old pattern books -- instructions are minimal and usually take up one page or less. I always use templates to draw my quilt pieces & scissors to cut them -- rotary cutting and quick piecing don't work well for the type of scrap quilts I make. Sometimes these newer techniques waste fabric (and vintage fabric is precious), or add extra seams (to eliminate set-in pieces) which I believe detract from the original design. I draw my quilt pieces and also my quilting designs with a #2 pencil, which is another thing I love about quilting -- it doesn't require a lot of equipment. I use a large hoop for hand quilting. Quilting in a frame is so appealing, but I had one years ago and I never quite got the hang of it. Much of the fabric for this quilt came from an old brick pattern 1940's quilt top purchased on ebay, together with some large pattern vintage prints that I was desperate to use in a project. The brick blocks were not quite wide enough to form the center pieces of the lantern, so many of these larger pieces are pieced themselves. The small yellow border is vintage, the larger red border is reproduction fabric. The lanterns are quilted in vertical and diagonal lines -- the spaces are quilted with diagonal lines and motifs from the book Japanese Design Motifs. This book is a wonderful resource for quilting patterns. Some of the quilting designs were probably overly elaborate, because after the quilt was washed, I found it was difficult to make out some of the details.

I made this patch quilt from places we have traveled to on the motorcycle’s or in the truch. The white stitching is to represent the winding roads.
