"Flames" Stack & Whack Quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
I made this throw size quilt for my son (52 X 76), he's 6'3". I got the idea for the layout from a baby quilt posted by dhanke, thanks Diane, your quilts are beautiful. It took me a while to make. I straight stitched diamond shapes around the squares parallel with the hexes and meandered in ALL the black areas in the borders and hexes. I love the patterns that each hex made. My son really likes it. Thanks for looking :)

awesome quilt..... I love the stack and whack!!!! I never would have thought of doing it with the flames.. I'll have to remember this~~~

Beautiful stack n whack Donna! It is so amazing how much diversity you can get from a relatively simple print. I would never have thought that flames would result in such fabulous blocks. I have fabric pulled from my stash for several snw quilts, now all I need is time

Wow that is such a beautiful quilt, I like the flames.

. . . . . and now another one is added to my MUST DO list. Fantastic work - I love the flames. I have 3 sons in law who would have a fit over this. Thanks for the inspiration.

I like this quilt too, I used these flames on the back of a baby quilt for my grandson

Sandee 01-08-2012 05:19 PM

I have that fabric & have never made a stack & whack..hummmmm-maybe I should make one like your beautiful quilt!

That is sooooo cool!!! I have always wanted to try this pattern - what a fun print to use. Great job!!

Love it !! The flames are perfect and made a great quilt.

spartan quilter 01-08-2012 05:35 PM

That is one awesome quilt. I have seen flame fabric and wondered just what you could do with it, and you took it to the max for impact. Great job.

That is a seriously eye-popping quilt. I love the way the flame fabric worked in the SNW - would not have thought of that myself. That is one hot quilt!! Great work on the quilting too!

starshine 01-08-2012 05:38 PM

wonderful and dynamic!

MdmSew'n'Sew 01-08-2012 05:54 PM

Wowser! I know all the hexes came from the flame fabric, but your vision makes them come alive - I can't imagine how hard you had to work to make them all come out so gloriously.

lfstamper 01-08-2012 05:55 PM

WOW - spectacular!

Nettie Phillips 01-08-2012 06:11 PM

Wow, you never know how nice a piece of fabric is going to look in a Stack and Whack. I would never have thought
of using this fabric. Pretty.

hoppa 01-08-2012 06:15 PM

;ove this idea and may have to go get some flame fabric now

Vivian Ketron 01-08-2012 07:45 PM

Fantastic quilt. I too like the different pattern swirl in each block.

valleyquiltermo 01-08-2012 07:53 PM

Oh Donna, that is great, I've had that fabric for 2 years I think and I love stack and whack, never though about using the flames. I was wondering what I'd do with it. Now I know thanks so much.

sewnsewer2 01-08-2012 07:59 PM

Whoa! That's cool!

Tartan 01-08-2012 08:05 PM

Great balls of fire, that's gorgeous! Love it! Love it! Love it!:)

kayluvs2quilt 01-08-2012 08:15 PM

WOW!!!!! and double WOW!!!!!

audsgirl 01-08-2012 09:31 PM

Isn't it interesting how different the blocks can look when the original fabric doesn't seem to have a lot of variation? It's fabulous!

Jim's Gem 01-08-2012 09:35 PM

Very Pretty!!

PhotoKevin 01-08-2012 09:35 PM

I agree with dhanke. Love your quilt, your choice has given me a new way of looking at fabric for Stack and Whack. Thanks for sharing.

Stunning, I have that fabric and was wondering what to do with it.
