Hello. I injured my wrist last week, so I don't have a lot of new things to share. I thought I'd share some Fabulous Fan Quilting images that I've collected.
What a great small antique quilt.
These are set like Clamshells. How neat.
Here the quilter played around with which blades to quilt. I love this quilt!
Katy did this one and I love how she switched directions. That Irish Chain got cray cray on the left side.
Lori had this on her blog - wow good one!
Another example by Katy. They frame the edge and collide in the middle.
Oooh La La so elegant on this applique quilt. I like the alternate block - very unique.
Which is your favorite?
These quilts and other antique quilts I've studied helped me develop my Fan Stencils.
I'll let you in on a secret. If you get the small blade fan stencil, you can skip every other line and achieve the look of the original fan.
You can find them in my Etsy Shop by clicking here. I will give you a 20% discount if you enter the code: SPARROW when ordering.
Whether you use my stencil or another, click here for my tutorial on marking them in the traditional way or use the photos in this post to try a new way.
I hope all you Swappers doing well with your Churn Dash Blocks. I can't wait to see them all!
