Robot Riot
A new quilt pattern from Kellie
at Don’t Look Now.

Kellie was here teaching on the weekend so
we got to see this fantastic quilt.
The robots are so cute!

I also snapped a few pictures
of Kellie’s class!

I love seeing all the different results.
Kellie will be teaching again at Ballarat
Patchwork next year.
If you are interested in attending one of Kellie’s
classes send us an email.

I have spent the last to week madly sewing.
The quilt I have been working on is a Pickle Dish
made mainly out of Joel Dewberry fabrics.

I was asked by Claire Mooney from Quilters Companion
to design a quilt for a special edition of this magazine.
It is going to feature traditional quilts made from modern fabrics.
Release date is June 2012.

I have always wanted to make a pickle dish quilt so this
was the perfect opportunity.

First job was to cut all the triangles
for the pointed arc pieces.
I then foundation pieced these arcs.

That sure was alot of sewing!

Then I had to sew the blocks together.

This is the finished block.
Just had to sew it all together.

and the finished quilt,

Ta Da

any ideas for a name?
