It’s assembly day for Maritime Compass – a version of a favorite Quiltworx.com pattern, Mariner’s Compass that is coming back in full force as a customizable mixer series. These new iterations will debut for paper piecers to make at Quiltworx University 2024 at Stitchin’ Heaven in March. I made this sample using Judy and Judel’s […]
Finally finished this underwater beauty, Quiltworx Technique of the Month, CORAL REEF (wall version). I designed the colorway using Kaffe Fassett collective collections for this one over a year ago.
