Corner design

Finally I figured out what to do with the corners of my Camelot quilt top.
When I was a member of the IQI  Guild in Chicago I had a workshop about designing borders. The most important thing I remember is to make a connection between the middle of the quilt and the border.
So I came up with this idea.

 Yes, the corners will be round, like the circles of the Camelot blocks. I traced the design once on pattern paper and then put 4 layers under my sewing machine (big stitch, no thread) and copied the pattern 4 times! Easy! Now I can paperpiece the 4 corners.

 The back of the 4 sheets of paper still together.

Yeah, I am ready to sew the last bit of this top!!

Happy sewing,

Special feeling....

Now I know how it feels to be " the chosen one".
Yesterday, while driving back from the Patchwork Tage in Berlin, I found out that my blog was "blog of the week". And I must say: I feel very honored!!!

Thank you for visiting my blog despite the fact that I am not posting a lot lately. If only we could have 48 hours in a day.

Update on Camelot:

Decided to NOT use the Shanghai blocks and started cutting the points for the border. Hope I will have enough fabric...

Patchwork Tage in Berlin was a great event, you will be able to read all about it in the September number of Quiltnieuws.

the car was packed

You can find some pictures on the blog of the German Quilt Guild.

Happy quilting!!
