None of us ever thought that we would be facing such challenges, but here we are. I hope you and your families and friends are getting through as well as you can.
Splitz is a fun asymmetrical table runner in 3 sizes. The quick two color angle segment so many loved in BQ3 is back in a reduced size to make the look of a slightly angled right angle.
This quilt is the middle size, about 13 ½" x 43 ½".
Three sizes: 13 ½" x 34", 13 ½" x 43 ½" and 13 ½" x 52".
The setting triangles are cut slightly oversized so everyone will have sharp points on the corner squares after trimming and stitching.
They don’t take much fabric so you might have just what you need right on your shelf!
Susie made her Splitz with some special treasured fabric that reminded her of the Molas she would see when her family lived in Panama while growing up.
The bright multi color fabric is functioning as the light. 8 rows 13 ½" x 43 ½".
Heide chose a softer pallet for her Splitz and used her favorite dusty purple and pink.
Susie chose a bold floral for her center. The pink dots are a fun choice for the light.
Two sizes: 18" x 27" and 18" x 44". The smaller quilt (blue) is fat quarter friendly.
Heide is showing off an early spring look on her table. She gets the credit for the optional inner border! That tiny little border can really set off the center.
Some of us are cleaning our sewing rooms and organizing our fabrics during this stay at home time. I am finding both treasures and trash – how about you?
I must have abandoned this BQ4 because I ran out of center fabric!
But I found something that would work and I’ll just call it a design option.
You will see what I chose when it is finished! 20 blocks 60" x 72"
When I and my testing/design group were experimenting on the miniature sizes of the BQs, we sampled all of them before deciding on the original BQ to create BQ Goes Mini. I found this test version of BQ5 Mini. Isn’t it just so cute? It is not a pattern yet, but if you are a math person, it is ¼ the size of the original pattern. You will have to experiment with the angle piece to get it right. Or you can wait for the pattern! The blocks are laying on a treasure I found when sorting and tidying.
