Hi Melanie, I love your quilt top! Wonderful work--well done!! Thanks so much for posting it. I'm sorry for the delay in responding. I've been traveling to teach since Labor Day and this is one of my first days at home!

This is such a happy little quilt. Lots of techniques used. I loved making the Dresden plates. They are addicting! I am tempted tp make a whole quilt of them like Diane did. I will quilt it on my home machine. Waiting to see what Diane suggests for the quilting.

Hi Karla, thank you for jumping in to Summer Splash with your autumn kit! I love those fabrics, too. I'm wracking my brain but I am not sure I follow your question. I don't think it will take any more fabric if you wish to use spray starch. Or am I missing something, or completely misunderstanding what you are asking? Please let me know, I'll be happy to help.

Karla, Sorry to see no one has responded to your post. Not sure what you are asking. Starch does
not make the amount of fabric change. Were you talking about washing the fabric then starching it, and you are worried about the shrinkage? Maybe customer service could check with the people
that made up the kits. It is worth an email. HelenW

I would like to start summer splash, but I am still waiting on an answer to my question:
I purchased Summer Splash in the Spice Color. Gorgeous fabrics! Is there enough fabric to allow for starching? I have much better luck with my piecing if I starch with Best Press.

Loved the first lesson by Diane Harris. Even though I have been quilting for almost 3 decades I learned things that
were explained in a different way and it was easier to understand why it was important. I am not one to follow a pattern
although I think her pattern is great. Not needing another project to those I am currently doing I liked the miniature type size so I bought the download pattern. This morning I got a newsletter
email from Kari Schell on how to draft a friendship ring variation of the Olympic Rings. I thought it would look great in
my variation of Summer Splash to include some Olympic stuff since they start in Paris in a week. This is the ring block
I drafted to put in my Summer Splash. This is going to be a fun project. HelenW
After downloading the pattern, the thought of cutting everything first was overwhelming.
So I browsed the instructions and decided to make the top left corner block as a sample
to see if Paula Doyles mini mosaic method would work. Not bad, but not as accurate as
I was hoping. Since I plan to throw in some blocks related to the Paris Olympics, I decided
to just pick parts of the pattern to use.
Made another corner block and it turned out more accurate.Last edited by Helen W.; 07-22-2024, 11:33 AM.
