Georgie's recent visit gave us the opportunity to see her exquisite Chuck Nohara quilt up close.
Georgie and her sister Phyl each made one in classes with Lorena Uriarte, choosing a manageable number of blocks from the 2001 in Chuck Nohara's book, 2001 Nouveaux Blocs de Patchwork.
Have they inspired some of our members, perhaps?
 |
| Georgie's quilt is mostly hand pieced, made up of 64 blocks, eleventy hundred tiny, precise sashing blocks and that gloriously spiky border! |
 |
| The border is foundation paper pieced, and include about 1500 spikes! |
 |
| The strips in the tiny pieced sashing finish at 3/4" ! |
 |
| Each block is different ... |
 |
| Georgie didn't count them, but can you imagine how many different fabrics she has used? |
 |
| The blocks are about 6" finished - all those minute clam shells! |
|
| An original block Georgie designed to re[resent her rural and ocean views from home. |
 |
| Tiny moons over the mountain! |
 |
| Straight and curved piecing, applique, foundation piecing - this quilt this quilt has it all. |
