My last post was more than a month ago, when I posted my finished ‘Succulents’ quilt. After that, I started working on a couple of mini quilts but didn’t post about them. At the end of July, I left for a 2-week trip to NYC and England with my sister Anne. We traveled with Craftours<\/a> from NYC to Birmingham for 2 days at the Festival of Quilts<\/a>. Then we toured through English towns and countryside, to London for 2 days, then back to NYC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a wonderful trip! Here are a few of my favorite photos from our travels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can see LOTS more photos (including many many quilts from the Festival) on my Instagram feed<\/a> and Anne’s Facebook feed<\/a>. Look for posts between July 31 and August 11. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we returned from our trip, I picked up where I left off, with an entry for the next Curated Quilts issue. The theme is Black & White.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my first time using the interweave (interleave?) process. I was inspired by these blog posts at threadlines<\/a>, Quilt Inspiration<\/a> and This Thing<\/a>. I selected 4 different black & white fabrics, created 2 blocks and then sliced each block into 1 inch strips. I arranged the strips alternating from each block, then sewed them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
