Architextures

I have had several questions about the ledger fabric in my last post...
the fabric is called Architextures by Robert Kaufman...
A great text fabric!


I have added a couple of borders to my quilt....
again, the pattern is from the new book by Sarah Fielke...the book is called Hand Quilted With Love and the pattern is Made to Measure...


several of the borders contain delightful corner blocks...

  
added to some fun pieced border strips...

 
I am loving working on this quilt...makes me want to stay up late and piece...

I also have a special one in the hoop....a little hand quilting with perle cotton {of course}

 
happy thursday!

    Lovely! I am also in love with Architextures and have used it multiple times with different kinds of settings--it is really versatile.

    Your piecing and quilting are beautiful, and inspire me to get off the computer and get going!

    this quilt is looking great and beautifully made. Trying to make me spend more money but think I will resist the book this time, have spent too much recently!!

    It's lovely, I must get some perle cotton, not that I'd know what to do with it if I got some! :) x

    That hand quilting on the solids is just amazing. *sigh* solids make me so happy, especially with perle cotton.
