I decided to try something new and join a quiltalong with the Fat Quarter Shop. There was an opportunity to sew a Lady of the Lake block from a pattern that is part of their Classic and Vintage Quilt Along. I love classic and vintage quilts - how could I resist?
Of course I couldn't stop at just one block especially since there were parts already made for a second block.
Lots and lots of fabric auditioning occurred, digging deep into my big bag of Minick and Simpson scraps. Blocks 2,3 and 4 sewed up quick once I picked out fabric.
I did not have time to make all the blocks for the Lady of the Lake Classic and Vintage pattern. I made a table topper instead with just 4 blocks. There were decisions to make about how to position the blocks. Asymmetrical blocks are fun to play around with.
A couple of borders later I have a finished top. This sewed up quick and I think it will make a great Christmas gift. (this gives me lots of time to get around to quilting it :0)
Other bloggers are previewing this pattern and I'm looking forward to seeing what they have made with it. The links are on the FQS blog here.
Happy Quilting!!
