I wanted to use large pieces of this beautiful Alexander Henry floral. The "windflower" blocks were fussy to piece, but I'm happy with the effect.
Featuring the Frippery collection by Thomas Knauer for Andover Fabrics.
60"x72"
Machine pieced and quilted. Hand-finished binding.
Excerpt from barnquilttrails.ca/barns/elgin-county/drunkards-path-2/:
Drunkard’s Path – Three of Sparta’s four taverns voluntarily closed with the rise of the temperance movement. Led by two ministers and Dr. Shannon, citizens lifted the license from the fourth, the Ontario House. On its last day, patrons lit torches and marched down Main Street intending to burn the Baptist minister’s home. They changed their minds when Dr. Shannon greeted them with a loaded shotgun.
This was so much fun!! This pillow has so many favourite fabrics, colours and designers. There're 38 different fabrics in the pillow including some AMH, Denyse Schmidt and quite a few Sarah Jane too. Totally inspired by Michelle @ I Like Orange's gorgeous drunkards path quilts, like this one here. I followed Blooming Poppies tutorial for concentric circle quilting.
Dear Partner here is your finished quilt. I hope you like it! It is hand quilted with perle cotton and bound in a dark grey dotty poplin. Will be in tomorrow's post for you.
Yay! I finished my Drunkard's Path quilt top for the quilt along hosted by Kate and me, and I love it. It was so much fun conquering curves with this great group of ladies :) Read more at:

Hope you like it, partner. The mister wants me to keep it - but I think it'll have a fun time in its new home.

Oh my gosh....what a beauty. This is stunning. I love everything about it, and the goodies that were sent with it.
Thank you sweet whimsical partner! Wendy of On a Whim/Little Whimsies rocks!
Completed drunkard's path quilt top! I used a 10" pre-cut layer cake for all of the C+S August fabrics, plus added in coordinating solids and one Nani Iro print! Inspiration came from @singallyouwant's gorgeous drunkard's path quilt!
a quick january finish; was really apprehensive cutting and sewing these large curves (first time). however, found a great course on Craftsy.com (Playing with Curves, with Ann Petersen), and followed her useful instructions. created the pattern on my own, but missed in the measurement and ended with a fold on each block. zig zagged stitched over it to hide them...somewhat! really happy with the results. binding it in pink/peach gives it just this extra punch I think.
machine pieced and machine quilted. cotton batting. approximately 40x40.

The first 8 were so easy and so satisfying that I went stash diving to find some coordinating fabrics to make more.
Also, I just love that gal so freaking much, I wanted to do some extras for her.
These are the items being sent off to my partner. I hope she likes them. The cushion would be puffier if I had a big enough insert to put in it to show it off. I think it will need a 22" insert to fill it properly.
