2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog: Simplifying
http://wqs09.blogspot.com/2009/06/simplifying.html
2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog. Sunday, August 16, 2009. Having selected, sized and placed the various images, I labeled them so I knew where they would each fit. At this point I made the crucial decision to use curved piecing for the flowers and straight edge piecing for the leaves, all of which would be "new" leaves - mostly to keep the greens in one color family. Curved piecing means it is much easier to create the piecing plan, but much, much more time consuming to sew. Won by Dan Farrar of Chester...

2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog: How long until I sew?
http://wqs09.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-long-until-i-sew.html
2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog. Sunday, August 16, 2009. How long until I sew? Here's the design wall with most fabrics chosen and the reference photographs pinned around it. I tend to let a piece sit while I do other things - in this case I made a baby quilt - looking at it often to see if I'm sure abut the choices. I decided that the colors of the right hand flower in the top row were too dark/ strong, so I replaced a few of the pieces until it pleased me. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2009 Westminster Quilt Show on October 17-18, 2009 in Westminster, Vermont. Its success would not have been possible without the efforts of nearly 100 volunteers and close to the same number of quilts displayed in the various exhibits. The feedback from attendees was very very positive!

2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog. Thursday, August 20, 2009. Border doubles as a binding. I quilted mostly in the background and more lightly, if at all, on the flowers so that they stand a little proud. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog: Sewing at last!
http://wqs09.blogspot.com/2009/06/sewing-at-last.html
2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog. Sunday, August 16, 2009. Since the fabric pieces totally obscure the drawing on the design wall, it is hard to figure out where to start sewing. Here's why you need two copies. My reference copy in this cse was the photos overlaid with the piecing diagram. Fine silk pins work best since you can sew right over them if you don't care to pull them out as you sew. For tight curves, a lot of pins are needed. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog: Assembling a square
http://wqs09.blogspot.com/2009/06/assembling-square.html
2009 Westminster Quilt Show Blog. Sunday, August 16, 2009. One of the trickier squares shown here sewn. Success hinged on working out and sticking to the piecing order - otherwise there would have been a lot of partial seams or totally inset seams to sew. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
