Hi! I’m so excited to introduce next week’s posts on QUILTsocial! Are you ready for an exciting week of quilting fun? Award-winning quilter, Claire Haillot of Quilting with Claire, is walking us through her free quilt pattern called, Deep Waters. A quilt that looks complex to make, but she assures me it’s really easy to make. Claire makes it easy using her awesome tips she calls ‘best-kept secrets’.
What’s even more exciting is she’s using the newly released Banyan Batiks Color Blocking fabric collection! Just out the door and in your LQS, this fabric is mesmerizing in the Turquoise colorway. Check out the rest of the captivating colorways:
Hhhmmmmm, sounds like a treasure trove.
Claire incorporates two other fabrics for fluidity in her design. See the finished quilt below.
All week she shares her tips on two essential sewing tools that help you piece perfectly, what to look for on your square ruler when squaring off your quilt blocks, and how to assemble your quilt top to avoid messing with long rows. You’ll want to find out about that!
Use the handy Product Finder (found on the upper right of the page) on the Banyan Batiks Color Blocking page to know which shop carries this NEW collection and get the required fabric amounts to follow along! The fabric requirements will be in Monday’s post.
Cheerfully,
Carla
