Four Patch Posey/ STACK AND WHACK

Wow I didn't realize it's been so long since I posted. I don't think I was that busy LOL. I've been working on another UFO before I finish my circle quilt. When I started this one I used a dull purple for the cornerstones. But that was too dark and I didn't like it. A friend of mine started digging thru the fabric stash and found this gold batik. So I unsewed a little to replace the purple with the gold. I like it much more this way. It really made a big difference, brightened the whole...

It seems I haven't posted photos of this quilt, one of my favorites, made about a year ago. It's about 40" square, and I've it hung in a place where I see it every day. This is about the 7th quilt I've made from the "Four-Patch Stacked Posie" pattern, which is basically a method of cutting up one central fabric so that each block is made from four identical segments of the fabric. Most people do this quilt from floral fabrics, and I've done some like that, but I also like what happens with a...

4 patch posie pattern

Pictures - My four patch stacked posey - This pattern as discussed on other thread was a nightmare to follow. I made the mistake of doing an extra border around my blocks. Then the cornerstones....

I couldn't get motivated to finish anything yesterday so I cut another 4 patch posy/posey/posie. Yes you will find it spelled all 3 ways if you do a search for the pattern/method. This fabric is from the days before there were quilt shops so mid to late 70s probably. It was folded right sides in like they did all clothing fabrics back then. Here are the first 12 up on the design wall, not sewn together. I was able to get 28 blocks cut at 6". Sewn together the blocks finish at 11". There is a...

stacked posies

Hello! This is a new project that I started with Pauline and Susan who came over sew recently. It's called "Four Patch Posie". This is a four patch posie project. It is similar to a stack and whack, except it uses only four squares of fabric. Here is one that I made a couple of years ago and gave as a baby gift. You can see the original fabric on the borders, but in this case it's difficult to see because it all looks the same. The way this is done is you layer 4 repeats of a pattern, it's...

I originally planned to set the blocks together without sashing but in the event decided to half frame them in alternate mauve and turquoise fabric. Blocks set side by side Half frames cut out I sewed the mauve ones first. Alternating colours
