On my design wall – 2014.01.29

My entry for the VMQG/Modern Quilt Guild Riley Blake Basics challenge is progressing nicely.  I knew I wanted to do another circle quilt, using similar techniques that I used in this quilt.  After many sketches, I settled on this design.

DSCN3236

I drew the pattern on freezer paper, then cut each template out and pressed it to the back of the fabric.  I used 2 techniques to join the pieces – some of the seams have raw edges that will be covered with bias tape, some of the seam allowances were pressed over the freezer paper template then top-stitched over the adjacent piece.

The right side is sewn together, except the 2 orange corner pieces.  The left side hasn’t been sewn at all yet.
