Magnolia Quilt |
My sister was cleaning out and found this kit for a magnolia
wallhanging and gave it to me to work on during the winter. When I opened it
to look at the contents of the kit, I realized I had originally
purchased this kit for our mother. It is a foundation
paper-piecing kit using freezer paper. Obviously she was not into
foundation paper-piecing so she gave it to my sister, who then gave it
to me! LOL.
So I decided to finish it (and I had great fun doing it), for
my sister for her next birthday. And I did. The pattern was
drawn out on freezer paper, and I cut the pieces apart, ironed
them onto the backs of different fabrics, then pieced the sections
together (using the master pattern for a guide), an had a great
looking huge magnolia!
I machine-pieced the top and machine-quilted the quilt with lots of details inside the flower to make it look real. |
