I am lucky enough to be friends with the lovely Angela at Cut to Pieces, and knew instantly I wanted to make the Nine Patch Curves quilt from her A Quilter's Mixology: Shaking Up Curved Piecing
Another dear friend of mine got married this past September, but harvest and a new job and a family tragedy impeded my actually getting there. The next best thing I could do was make a quilt.
I got to give it to her and her new hubby over Thanksgiving break.
My color palette was inspired by her bedding set, and I quilted it in a basic all over stipple.
I added a row to make the quilt a little bigger from the pattern in the book, and had some acrylic templates made to make the cutting more enjoyable for me (I really like having templates for cutting).

As far as Angela's book.
I highly recommend it. Her patterns are unique, fun, graphic, pretty, and totally doable.

ReplyDeleteI especially love the urban lattice quilt do you still have the orginail directions form Me? A Mom? she no longer posts on her blog and the links go to some Chinese site????
Wow, Tracey, that is just awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteHelp! My daughter and I are in the process of making this nine patch curves quilt. The drunkards path blocks have all been made exactly as instructed (and per photos) in the book. Going from the top left, clockwise, the colours are gold, mint, red, blue. However, in the quilt assembly photo, it appears that only the blocks in the even rows follow this order. The ones in the odd rows appear to be gold, blue, red, mint. A mirror image... Have you encountered this?! I’m just about to start ripping out! Thanks!
