Help Needed on Curved Section.

I am having so much trouble hand piecing this block. Any suggestions??





I really love the simplicity of this quilt and it goes against my usual likes that I wrote about in my last post. Just beautiful.

Corn and Beans...

Thank you Deb for leading me in a direction to identify the quilt block as Corn and Beans. I really like this pattern. I notice that when I see a quilt I love it has a few characteristics:

1. Detailed
2. Great jewel tones/not pastels
3. Hand quilted.

Of course this is my personal preference.

I am very much interested in learning how to hand quilt. I hand piece my quilt tops. Funny, I have met a few hand quilters in my area, but none want to teach this art. Why not? If we don't pass this art down through the generations it will be lost. However, I did find a teacher last night and I will be getting my first lesson on Monday night.

Above is a picture of hand quilting. Notice the jewel tones, hand quilting and detail!

Enjoy!!

Does anyone know this block?

I just love this block. Does anyone know the name of it?

Quilts, quilts

Beautiful blue quilt with lots of embroidery. Great inspiration!!




I am making a similar hexagon quilt by hand now.





I really love the style and colors of the above two quilt blocks. I am always attracted to cranberry, purple and pinks..


I like the color combination together.
