Today’s mail brought me a copy of Issue 38 of Quilters Companion magazine which features my project Kaffe Tapestry:
qc38cover Kaffe Tapestry Kaffe Tapestry Quilted Vines
Kaffe Tapestry is a popular design in the series of quilts I’ve developed for my Power Stripping workshop - designs that grow quickly with minimum fuss and maximum fabric economy using strips cut across the width of the fabric. Perfect for jelly rolls! This quilt is 90×90inches but can easily be made smaller by eliminating some rows and columns. I had great fun quilting the whimsical scroll vines following a technique outlined by Patsy Thomspon on her DVD Free Motion Fun with Vines & Leaves Volume 2.
