Baptist Fan
When quilting the Baptist Fan quilting pattern, do you start at the side of the quilt?
|
Yes you do. And mark until you run out of design. No attempt to make it fit the space.
|
Thank you Holice. I've always wanted to do this pattern.
|
How big should you make the fans? And how far apart are the rolls?
|
Traditionally the fans were about the same size ...about 12inches with bands about 1inch apart. There are stencils available of different sizes from 3inch up. I tend to use the size of the block. I believe this provides a good balance overall. My aunts drew the outer arc with string and chalk. They eyeballed the subsequent bands with not all even.
