Sonoma Quilt
Completed: June 2015
Pattern: "Sonoma" quilt designed by Camilla Quilts
Quilt Size: 55 x 75" (52.5 x 71" after shrinking)
Block Size: 8.5 x 7" finished
Fabric: Always Blooming by Susy Pilgrim Waters for P&B Textiles focus fabric; white on white Ramblings Weave background fabric. Purchased most fabrics at Weaver's.
Technique: Pieced blocks and glue basted onto batting that measured 1" wider all around each rectangular block. Quilted four-block units using quilt as you go method. Attached pieced backing using "stitch-in-the-ditch" technique. Hand stitched binding using a ladder stitch.
Tutorial: How to square up half-square triangles
Notes: This quilt was created for my sister's historic Cape Cod home in Provincetown, MA. The fabrics reflect summertime ocean colors and wintertime snowfall. The focus fabric that looks like a water color painting reminded me of fabric my mother used to make one of my sister's many prom dresses.
CARE - 100% cotton fabric; machine wash and tumble dry. All Thread Projects quilts are pre-washed in cold water and pre-shrunk in a hot dryer before gifting.
