A Couple of Finishes

First, here’s the snake made by my friend Michele. The pattern is Renewal by Eudaimonia Studio. Michele commented that the directions were very clearly written!

Second, here’s a quilt top I designed and made for Flying Horse Farms. I’ll turn it over to my friend Jerri when we next meet and she will quilt it and even deliver it in person!

The background fabric has all sorts of scientific formulae on it, so I’m hoping this goes to a young person who is interested in science and will enjoy identifying them.

Of course while I was designing this quilt I had to try a few other options, including this one. I do all my designs in EQ8 and find it very helpful.

The quilt was quick and easy, since the blocks finish 10″. Feel free to copy it if you need a bunk-sized quilt.

  1. Two great pictures in fabric. The science-themed background makes the viewer come up close. I wasn’t sure about the snake–thanks to the link to the designer.

    • The designer (Brooke) who did the snake is a good one. I’ve made several of her quilts and enjoyed them. Maybe more modern than most of yours, but interesting to make and the patterns are well written.

  2. I’ve recently become the proud owner of one of those HST triangle trimmer rulers from Quilt In A Day, so I’m filing away your second quilt for future reference. Good to gather ideas, and you always have plenty. That snake quilt is great fun, too!

    • Trimmer rulers are a big help, I think. I use the Tucker tools and love them after having tried many, many others. I look forward to seeing what you make with your triangle trimmer rulers!
