low volume
I'm scheming with Jenny (krousegirl2) to make a generous throw-sized quilt for a Sandy Hook student. Our overall theme is "low volume." I may have gone a little bit overboard with the bright colors in choosing some of the prints, but I think Jenny's beautiful blocks will even the score. These blocks of strips will be sewn together in the rail fence pattern.
I plan to straight line quilt this on my machine. I did just recently reach out to a local long arm studio to see if they might consider volunteering to quilt it, but I don't know if they will. It is a busy time for people in their business. I just thought it would be nice to try and see if a longarmer would get involved because it would make it that much more beautiful.
I mentioned a couple of crafty ways to help the community in Newtown on my blog today. Link here:
