nancileigh's projects

In December 2015, I came across some sales for quilt kits using Tonga Batiks. This one used a set of 2 1/2 in precut strips. I tried to make sure I had light and darks separated as I pieced, and arranged the pieces to flow diagonally. I also added a border. I then practiced my long arm skills to quilt it in February. Bound, labeled and completed by the end of February 2016.

I liked Jenny's tutorial on the Sticks and Stones quilt. I turned it around by using soft, watercolor batiks for the sticks, and a darker blue batik for the stones. Because of the river theme, I asked the longarm quilter to use the dragonfly pattern. I'm very pleased with the results.
