Design Wall Monday

Not too much sewing going on here, 

but at least I finished my 'You+Me' quilt top,

pattern from the Gen Q magazine

 - have a look:

Ok, for the moment

it will join the to-be-quilted pile,

but I am hooked on Angela's book

"Free Motion Quilting"

and her Craftsy class

"Quilting Negative Space".

So maybe soon I will overcome

my pantograph only approach

on my shortarm set-up.

There is hope!

And I have another quilt to share:

Cake Stand Illusion,

my guild challenge quilt,

that was not understood at 'my' (?) guild.

They couldn't even hang it right, 

with the front side facing out...

I created the 3 x 3 cake stand block lay-out

in EQ7 and then enlarged it,

a colleague of mine 

showed & helped me

to spherize it,

and here it is - the applique front version:

My first 'rejected' paper pieced attempt,

ended up as backing

and I added a word-play

in the wedges I couldn't paper-piece right...:

 

Well, I hope you have time to check out

the other beautiful creations

listed on Judy's blog!
