When Julie at
Running Stitch Quilts requested pattern testers for her new pattern, I volunteered. I made Julie's
Scrappy American Flag and have purchased
Snowflakes in July,
Summer Garden, and
Ombre Gingham, all of which I love and hope to make this year. I've never tested a pattern before and felt nervous and excited but honored to give my opinions. I made notes on the pattern as I cut and sewed, made suggestions/corrections by category, and typed and sent it as a PDF to Julie, along with a photo of the flimsy.
Jack inspected and approved the flimsy
I cut into my cherished stash of Gooseberry fabrics for this quilt and love the way it all went together. I will post a final list of fabrics once the quilting is finished.
Julie's pattern, which is alternating X and O blocks, has instructions for 3 sizes with minimalist and scrappy options and is available for purchase
here. If you use the code ETERNALLYYOURS you can get a 20% discount until Friday March 8, midnight eastern time!
You are blowing my mind! Another beautiful quilt. Surely you have been cloned. I can’t imagine one person doing this all by herself.
ReplyDeleteLol Pattie! I have so much more I want to do and not enough hours in the day.
DeleteIt's absolutely goregous Linda! Beautiful fabrics! Christine xx
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Christine. :)
DeleteThat is a pretty pattern, and I love the fabrics and colors you chose for it! I remember your Scrappy American flag and didn't realize this was the same designer. I'll have to go check out her other patterns!
ReplyDeleteThank you Diann. :) Yes do check her out, she has some neat patterns.
