intrigued by the many layout options.

No one wanted the blocks, probably because the

were a little odd.
After I sewed them all together, the
graphic appeal is wonderful."
Another example of how a quilter can look at a simple block
and see it's true potential.
Fabrics that sat dormant for 80 years
can now be appreciated again!
The red really makes this quilt come alive!
Fan Quilts are a great way to use up left over
bits of fabric from here and there.
And Kathleen's layout is perfect.
fan quilts are pretty and like you say many options with them. Are you roasting in Phoenix area? sounds too hot to me.
ReplyDeleteHope you are keeping cool. Love the fan quilt
ReplyDeleteThere's so many settings for fan blocks, they're just bigger drunkards path really so yo7u could do similar settings. Looking lovely!
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt--the combination of fan and serpentine is a knock out!
