The June/July issue of Quilter’s Newsletter Magazine should be in your e-mail boxes now. The pattern for my Tangerine quilt appears on page 72.
I found the center block in the “Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns” by Barbara Brackman. It is block #1164, called “Arrow Crown”. I added the ribbon border first, then decided it needed to be bigger and added the other borders. The quilt was completed in November of 2014 for a guild challenge. Each member drew a crayon from a paper bag and had to make something quilted using only that color plus white, grey or black. I drew tangerine.

I quilted it on my domestic table top Juki using a low loft cotton batting. I used all white thread in the bobbin but switched the color of the top thread to match each block.

Wow! Nice to be in print. I got my mag, but have barely had a chance to look at it, but turned to yours when I read this. Looks good in the mag too. I like the idea of the challenge and your result. It is fun to start with a traditional block and end up with a not so traditional quilt!
Love seeing the close ups here. It was a fun challenge and this was definitely the winner! I like the “other side” too! Congratulations on being in the magazine!
This is beautiful (as is all of your work) you deserve to be recognized for it 🙂
