Barbara,

Thank you so much for your wonderful complements and sharing my compass on your Live video! I’m truly stunned!
I’m really enjoying this BOM, and I’m shopping my Kaffe Fassett Collective stash, with Art Gallery backgrounds. So glad that you liked my changes, and yes, that irregular stripe, which is Brandon Mabley’s “Crease” finishes at 1/4 inch - proving that a little goes a long way. I’m a big fan of Jacqueline de Jonge patterns so my changes were inspired by how she loves to use stripes in her quilts and her mastery of arranging color. I learn a lot about color trying to translate the batik color charts in her patterns into KFC fabrics.

Can’t wait till the March pattern release, this is a wonderful BOM!

Thank you again!
Beth

You are so welcome, Beth. It is exciting to see some of the thousands making this quilt tale it up a notch with their own unique changes. The original is a great quilt already and I love mine. But seeing other interpretations is inspiring too.
