My circle quilt for the Modern Metallic quilt exhibit is progressing, with some changes.<\/p>\n

I \"TerryAske_ModernMetallicCircle\"<\/a>decided I didn’t like the original<\/a> dark center circle or the gold lame bias tape – I wanted a lighter center circle, and darker bias tape.\u00a0\u00a0 I replaced the dark circle with a yellow-gold metallic print (I keep finding more and more metallic fabrics in my stash!), and I found a black bias tape with gold stripes.\u00a0 I’m using the black bias tape on some circles, and the gold lame on others.<\/p>\n

I also ran into a problem with the fabric stretching as I was sewing the bias tape on.\u00a0 With circles there are always bias edges, and I hadn’t thought through how much it would stretch.\u00a0 So I sprayed the whole thing with water, then pressed and prodded it back into shape.\u00a0 Then I fused a light-weight interfacing to the back to stabilize it – I should have done that as soon as I removed the freezer paper and before stitching any of the bias tape.\u00a0 It seems much better now.<\/p>\n

I have two more rounds of bias tape to sew, then I can layer it and start quilting.\u00a0 I’m going to try using a gold metallic thread and quilt a spiral in the center circle, and concentric circles in the rest.<\/p>\n
