WHAT'S IN THE OCEAN?
62" x 62" $58.50
The
What's In The Ocean, designed by Robin Betterley for
Wilmington Prints, has lots of colors, a bit of poetry, and many
opportunities to count the fish and other ocean creatures.
The panel (with 12 scenes) is complemented by overall prints,
used for sashing, setting triangles, and the back. The Wilmington
Prints project sheet (included in the kit) shows two slightly
different choices; for our Shop Model and our Kits, we chose "Choice
2." The kit does not include the fabric (4 yards) needed
for the backing, but does include the fabric for the binding.

SCRAPPY LAP QUILTS WITH 6" TUMBLERS
Left:
Dancing Horses. 47" x 55" $42.50 [for quilt top and
binding; batting and backing are purchased separately]
Center:
Taupe. 49" x 61" $15.00 for Tumbler Pack (only)
Right:
Borwn Bird. 47" x 55" $17.50 for Tumbler Pack (only)
Look what we are doing with 6" Tumblers! The Tumblers are already cut
for you, and sewing them together is a breeze. After sewing the
Tumblers together, you trim the sides and then add the borders.
We cut the Tumblers for our
Dancing Horses quilt from the
Clothworks
collection of the same name, designed by Laurel Burch. The 4 Border
strips (each is different) are cut from the stripe in this collection.
We prepared a kit for this quilt, having everything you need for the
quilt top.
For
Taupe, we packaged 49 tumblers
cut from a variety of taupe fabrics. In this case, you buy the pack of
Tumblers, and then add borders, backing and binding of your choice. Our
pattern gives you the information you
need to purchase the other fabrics (borders, batting, back, and
binding) for this quilt.
Our third quilt features Michael Miller fabrics; it has 56 tumblers. We
called it
Brown Bird because a little brown bird is a prominant
design
element in the fabric called
Woodcut Garden that we used for
the outer
border. Here, also, our
pattern gives you the information you
need to purchase the other fabrics (borders, batting, back, and
binding) for this quilt.

ALL STAR CHOOKS
47" x 45" $45.00
Although the word "chook" is commonly thought of as an Australian word
for "chicken," it seems to have an earlier origin; go to
www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-cho2.htm.
We begin by fussy cutting patriotic chickens, eagles, cows, and
kitties from a Quilting Treasures print. These are placed in the
fields of the flags, pieced from red and cream strips.
