January 23 had me finishing another pattern test for The Quilt Pattern Magazine. This pattern will be published in the May issue.
This pattern is Trinkets written by Nan Baker and finishes at 54 1/2” x 78 1/2”.
The cutting was done with great instructions to follow.
Then piecing commenced; strip piecing is possible when you are making 24 blocks.
There was a bit of trimming involved to ensure perfect blocks were made.
Then the blocks were assembled and rows put together. The rows assembled in to a top. With the additions of borders it was done and ready for a final press to wait for the snow to stop in order to take pictures.
That never happened so my kitchen floor became the backdrop!
This pattern can be found at The Quilt Pattern Magazine. It is well written with precise and easy to follow instructions for cutting, piecing and pressing. I always enjoy doing Nan Baker’s patterns.
This quilt is now sandwiched and ready to be quilted. Hopefully it will be a finish this month. If not for sure in May when it is published.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post. Stay home and stay safe! 😷 Carol

That’s a pretty color combination for that design. Hope the snow has stopped by now!

Hi Carol! These fabrics really do announce Spring into Summer. I can close my eyes and happily think of several flowers in these hues. Nice job! ~smile~ Roseanne

An interesting pattern, and very pretty colors. Are you freehand quilting it?

Hi Susan. I haven’t decided on the quilting yet. It’s the next one after I finish the one I’ve just started. Ruler work, freehand? I’m just not sure 🤔 Carol
