My first attempt to creating a Colorwash Quilt
1 Attachment(s)
My first attempt...I've got lots to learn about color placement, but I am happy with this small quilt. It is 21" x 29" and has 266 pieces and only 4-5 pieces are duplicated, if that. I've been studying Wanda S. Hanson's colorwash quilts. They are beautiful!
http://exuberantcolor.blogspot.com/p...sh-quilts.html The pieces are laid out on a 2" grid drawn on lightweight fusible interfacing (which I drew myself). After pressing all the pieces down, I sewed all the seams in one direction, clipped the interfacing and pressed the seams open, then sewed the other direction and pressed those seams open, too. Thanks for looking! Has anybody else tried this technique? Post a pic! |
Forgive my English in the title. Should read "first attempt to create (not creating) a colorwash quilt."

Don't worry about bad grammar when you can produce such a lovely quilt and a thread in a second language. My only way of a second language is by using translate.
Did you really colour wash each piece separately whoooo. |
I think it's fascinating and you've made me want to learn more about color washing and try myself! Thank you for posting.
