My Fabric in Quilts I Didn't Make (yet)


Sister's Paint Box by Carla at Cora Quilts
Carla had two packs of Moda precuts: My repro line Metropolitan Fair and Paint Box by Edyta Sitar for Laundry Basket Quilts.


She was pleased to see how well they complemented each other so she used them to make this quilt from a how-to by Bonnie Hunter. I love her binding of the stripe from Metropolitan Fair.

The pattern has several names. BlockBase says Sister's Choice and Greek Cross from the Kansas City Star plus New England Block. The BlockBase numbers are 1802a 1802b 1802c (Don't forget the "a" when you type in a numerical query)

And the Woolen Needle has a pattern and a kit for the quilt they call Ladies' Aid using another variation of the vintage pattern.

They chose my fabric line Ladies' Album.
And it looks like #8280-17 is the border print
I'm guessing she used this two-block variation of the same design: BlockBase #1001, commonly called Snowball.

Jan Hutchison framed a medallion as a presentation quilt using a chintz print from my Lately Arrived from London collection a few years ago.
