This quilt pattern made it into the Island Batik Fall/Winter Catalog 2019
Free Space
The fabric line is "Whispering Feathers"
I just love these fabrics but I have yet to not like any of Island Batik Fabrics.
I used Hobbs batting (I just purchased a whole roll of Hobbs Batting)...love it!
I used Aurifil Threads #2315 (light tan) and #2568 (burgundy for blanket stitching)
Notice all of the circles? At one time I could have told you how many I used but I am too lazy to calculate or go and look it up (that is right lazy). As you can see there are a lot.
I used the Accuquilt Go Cutter Circle Die #55012. Sure made fast work of the circles.
I opted not to use any fabric adhesive. For one, it would take a lot, and then you would need to cut and iron....so this gal is LAZY!! Also, it would make the quilt stiff in places.
I used elmer's glue and a lot of starch, only putting the circles on when I wanted to sew them on. Normally if you use fabric adhesive you will iron all of the pieces on and then applique. I just did one at a time.....I glued the circles, ironed them and then glued them on, as I said one at a time. Worked out great.
This was a lot of fun but for me stressful because I wanted it to turn out perfect. Each year I say I am not going to do another pattern for the catalog because I get so stressed but this is my fourth pattern in one of Island Batik Catalogs. Will I say never....NOPE
