I finally cut into my favorite print in Anna Maria Horner's Loulouthi line ~ Summer Totem.The pattern is "Strawberry Fields" from the first Material Obsession book. The pattern uses a wide border on the top and bottom of the quilt only. It's interesting and makes good use of that glorious print.
I did change the pattern up a bit and brought the frame strips out to the right and left sides.
The points are brown and
a variety of reds.
Yes, Loulouthi, you make me happy!
this looks beautiful...it is always so hard to cut into a favorite fabric
ReplyDeleteJust lovely!
ReplyDeleteIt's Gorgeous! Did you see the Hawthorne Threads Blog, she used your favorite Loulouthi print to cover a blank canvas and create a lovely wall hanging - which is also gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteVery, very nice!! The block you chose really shows off that floral nicely!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! Beautiful use of them!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to make this pattern from the book. I love your choice of fabrics for it! Beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteI really like the way the frames extend outward ... gorgeous quilt top with the perfect fabric!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, I love this design with these fabrics and the way you have added the extra frames.
ReplyDeleteWould make me happy if I had any! Great quilt I think it is very cleverly put together!
ReplyDeleteThis will be stunning!
ReplyDeletewow it's beautiful. i look forward to seeing it finished.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love your interpretation of the pattern!
ReplyDeleteI just scored 4 yard of Totem (white). I'm too afraid to cut into it - I love it soooooo much. Seeing what you did with it, has me running for my rotary cutter and Sarah's book. BEAUTIFUL, Cindy, soooo freaking beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh my! I have done this quilt, but I love it in this fabric so much more! fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThis is a.maz.ing. I love how it almost looks as though the Summer Totem is behind the other fabrics...like it's peeking through a colourful lattice or something. Does that even make sense?!
