And it feels so good to be to this point!<br />

This is my version of the Rail Fence pattern, in only 2 colors. It truly is a cultural fusion, as I used indigos from South Africa and 1800's reproduction fabrics for the lights/whites.</div>

Here is a closeup of one block, so you can see the fabrics better. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Due to the narrower width (35 inches) of the indigo fabrics, I had to make smaller blocks. Instead of the 16 inch blocks in the book, my blocks are 14 inches.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I found this pattern very easy to understand and very easy and fun to make. Thank you for the wonderful book, Sujata!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">In the evening class,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Miss Connie is creating a table runner</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">using larger blocks that will square to 10" or 10.5"</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Her layout will be 3 blocks wide by 10 blocks long.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Miss Denise's blocks feature contemporary prints, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Civil War reproductions,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">vintage/retro vibe fabrics,</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Her blocks square to 7.5" and her goal </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">These are the first few blocks</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">made by one of my evening students -</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">her first ever project from Sujata's book.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Her array of fabrics includes a mix of reds, yellows,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">blues, and oranges in addition to these greens.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She was nervous at the beginning</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">but has taken to the process</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and is now excited about her</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">quirky and super scrappy approach.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Miss Marie started with these colors</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">along with several greens and purples</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and then added a few more during class</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">including a golden yellow and two different pinks.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Miss Patty is making her version</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">with this floral in every block.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She'll use the three colors on the plate</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">as her inserts to make a modified version</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">of Sujata's lattice with straight-ish cut inserts.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The darker colors under the plate</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">will eventually become her borders.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">she wants all of her inserts to be the print named "Figgy."</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She added one more color to her squares during class,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">a warm rich orange like one of the leaves in the print.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I'll get the top sewn together and</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">piece a scrappy back with the leftover blocks</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and share the results with the students </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">during our second class.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Then the top and back will be donated</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">to one of our local quilt guilds</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">for their hospice quilt project.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is so much fun to watch</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">how different students approach</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">the designs in Sujata's book</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and then help them make</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">their ideas come to life!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">In January, I'll be teaching another class</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This time we'll be making LATTICE.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This sample top started with a layer cake</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">in wintery grays, creams, and whites.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We added burgundy, brown, hunter green, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and a couple of prints to the mix.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It has been well-received by shop visitors so far.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">One of the daytime students is making a Christmas version -</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">her fabrics are fabulous (she's working from fat quarters).</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">And this daytime student added her own twist on the design.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She's using a consistent background</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">with one block in the darker blue,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">one block in the print blue,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">and one using both blues.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">She's planning to use this approach throughout </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">her 25 block quilt top.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm looking forward to our next classes</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">just to see what else these ladies come up with!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">With Sujata's permission,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have been teaching from her Cultural Fusion Quilts book</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">at the newest of our local quilt shops.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Epicenter (above and below) is my recent sample quilt</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">that helped promote the freeform rail fence class.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Instead of a regular binding, I used facing for this one,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">my fifth free form rail fence quilt.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You can read the story behind the facing decision <a href="https://quiltdivajulie.blogspot.com/2018/07/epicenter-quilt.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">But as all of us who have made Sujata's quilts before know,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">there's more than one way to work with her blocks.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Using the block samples in the book,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I made one version that reminds me of a coins quilt.</span></div>

Only a year in the making. Wanting to continue the freehand cutting and piecing, I made the borders with ideas from Sujata's book.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglu2dFXfvW3Ky-yArXoGHIIMExvci7pk-wwX0RqRw2WIAwwXg6XcI4e6XYzsSj-YsiLuqlIOKYntn0Ww_9hrNCElQwmxX8AD5Gp7XbxX5YuvRjjH-DKoFSfmmqd8bf0S67OOgjzjM0Hn0/s1600/IMG_7998.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1558" data-original-width="1600" height="622" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglu2dFXfvW3Ky-yArXoGHIIMExvci7pk-wwX0RqRw2WIAwwXg6XcI4e6XYzsSj-YsiLuqlIOKYntn0Ww_9hrNCElQwmxX8AD5Gp7XbxX5YuvRjjH-DKoFSfmmqd8bf0S67OOgjzjM0Hn0/s640/IMG_7998.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>

<br />
The navy and purple diamonds of the inner border used her Hourglass instructions while the pennants of the outer border started as Endless Mountains. It was exciting to combine different quilting instructions into an original work, to mix scissor cutting with rotary cutting, and to work with a broad range of scraps and colorful fabric from my stash.

Thanks for your friendship and inspiration, Sujata.<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I like small projects that I can get finished! This was made with one fat quarter batik and one fat quarter of a custom designed muslin (Sharpie Tie Dye) and just a little bit of orange accent. I find myself using orange quite a lot.

Here is the latest finished quilt. I call it "Postcards from Thailand"<br />
I used total of six blocks from the book to create this medallion.<br />
Hourglass<br />
Half Square Triangles<br />
The border of Hourglass quilt (from the book)<br />
Lattice<br />
Triangles from Endless Mountains<br />
Rail Fence (On the back)<br />
<br />
This quilt is very special to me because it marks our latest vacation to Thailand with our daughter, Kavita.<br />
<br />
I taught this class at Port Gamble, WA and here are the pictures from the class.<br />

It is always fun to see a finished quilt from a participant from a previous class. Here I go again with forgetting the name of this lovely quilter. Please introduce yourself and claim your beautiful quilt if you are reading this post.<br />
<br />
We had so many wonderful, hilarious moments, I am thankful for being able to visit so many places and meet fabulous quilters.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's taken me nearly a year,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I'm almost finished quilting my small blade wallhanging,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which measures 17 by 34 inches.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made it from a set of Denyse Schmidt solid charm squares</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
at the beginning of 2016.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I machine quilted it with Aurifil threads</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of various weights and colours</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then threaded a crewel needle for some big stitching</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
inside the blades.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I still like it, and I'm wondering why it took me so long to quilt.</div>
