Striped Star Quilt
Striped Star Quilt
Couldn't load pickup availability
This small quilt is sized at 37" x 37" and is best suited as an art piece. I'm a big fan of stripes and wanted to incorporate them into this quilt pattern so I carved a lino block and printed the stripes by hand on natural indigo dyed fabric.
The rest of the fabric used on the front of the quilt was dyed with natural indigo and a dark navy was used for the border and the hand sewn binding. The back of the quilt is an improvised mix of cotton/linen hand dyed with a shibori pattern in indigo, logwood dyed textile and some of the dark navy from the front.
The front and back were machine pieced, meaning the patchwork is machine sewn. The quilting, meaning the stitches running throughout, is done by hand along the patchwork seams with quilting thread. The stitches are barely visible on the front side of the quilt but it creates a beautiful stitched pattern on the back. Hand quilting is a very laborious and time consuming process but the impact of the hand stitches cannot be replicated with a machine.
This lightweight quilt has 100% cotton batting. I am able to add a hanging sleeve to the back of the quilt if it will be used a display piece.
