Quilts

Frivols 3

FrivolsButton

Time for the third Frivols box to reveal its secrets, and to be made into a quilt.

I loved the reproduction/traditional fabrics as they appealed to another side of my fabric-loving self.  I don’t usually buy these, but I enjoyed working with the rich colors and rich surface pattern.

More information is on the bottom of the tin, such as size and additional fabrics required.

 

 

Moda’s blog post about this indicates that a bunch of smaller blocks can be made, instead of these larger blocks.  Okey-dokey, but no.  The cards are inspirational (I blurred out the measurements for their bonus block for copyright reasons), and again include the directions for another block on the back.  Okey-dokey, but no.

After cutting them according to the directions, I stacked them up, and put them back into their tin.

  1. Good for you getting these done! We have been doing some major house renovations (it was like living in a hoarders episode for three weeks) and now I am busy painting and organizing. Not a lot of quilting getting done here!

  2. These fabrics are definitely a departure from your usual style Elizabeth but they do have a certain appeal. I love how you tuck them away for the another day, sort of like laying down a bottle of wine to let it mature! Happy sewing!

  3. I love the way all those little pieces are sewn and packed away for some fun rainy day sewing. This is going to be another pretty one.
