I have no progress to report this week, but I continue to look for fabrics that can represent the stone fish hatchery building and it's tile roof. You're invited to visit my new page, Bill's Photographs, for a travelogue of our trip to Markleeville, California. The link is at the top of the right hand column.
Several years ago, Bethany Reynolds developed her technique, Stack 'n Whack, to achieve a kaleidoscopic design. There are several designs and I've made quite a few including this quilt which is composed mostly with one Japanese print fabric. Only the red triangles, two gray backgrounds and the borders are separate fabrics. The idea is to stack four, six or eight identical lengths of fabric together and whack them into the desired shapes with a rotary cutter. When you piece your square, hexagonal or octagonal block, the repeating design makes a nice pattern. I don't remember what I named this quilt so let's call it Cats for the fabric I used on the back. I think it's prettier in person. Until next time...
