I have decided to share the many quilting sides to my personality. For this post I am going to focus on fabrics. My favorite fabrics are batiks. I use batiks when I am creating for me. I have used them in creating my Asteria block of the month, but I have a multi-faceted quilt personality. I love the Downton Abbey series as well as the fabrics that support the show. I get to design with all kinds of fun fabrics. Sometimes the fabrics talk to me, sometimes they shout with joy and occasionally they don't say much at all. I know, I'm crazy.
The other morning I was thinking, what if I merge my Asteria design with the Downton Fabrics? Well, I did just that! Now I want to share the results.
First I would like to present Lady Edith.
Next, Lady Mary.
Next, Lady Sybil.
And my favorite, Violet.
What do you think? Do you want to weigh in with your favorite?
I know these are not time appropriate quilts. I wasn't trying to create quilts for Downton, I was just having fun merging my interests to see what would come from it.
Please feel free to share you thoughts about my crazy creations. I can't wait to get some feedback.
Blog at you later,
Tiffany

These are truly beautiful Tiffany. I can't seem to decide which one I like the best! Just goes to show that a great pattern design works well in many colour ways. Good for you! Now, will you be making them up in real fabrics?
ReplyDeleteI love the Asteria pattern in these fabrics. My favorite of the four is Lady Mary, but if I made one I would probably combine some Edith fabrics with some of Sybil's for a soft look. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThey are all just beautiful! Where can I find the pattern?
ReplyDeleteKathy, this is a Block of the Month quilt called Asteria. You can find it on my website: needleinahayesstack.biz.
ReplyDeleteHard to pick a favorite but Lady Sybil and Violet are on equal footing for me. Love them all.
