PRACTICAL &
WHIMSICAL
Following 70’s crazes, the satin
stitches were carefully interlinked
to create the look of the macramé
projects that everyone loved to make.
Each dot represents a knot in the
ever growing web that is macramé.
Like embroidery, practical crafts like
macramé are coming back in a big
way, so why not get ahead of the times
by combining the two?
WILD & FLORAL
What makes these blocks so special
are the adorable 3D eyes that are
attached to the animal quilt blocks.
Hooped first on two pieces of wash
away stabilizer, the free standing floral
eyes use an appliqué technique with
a heavy finishing satin stitch, which will
help tie the blocks to any room they
inhabit. Adding 3D elements to a quilt
bring in a completely new look to a
block, transforming it from a simple quilt,
to a work of art.
