Intermediate Celtic Design

Oriental Interlace, the sample quilt for Intermediate Celtic Design.

Oriental Interlace

Here's the sample quilt for Intermediate Celtic Design. Students will learn how to use Magic Key #2 to draw this design or create their own! This class also gives detailed instructions for choosing fabrics, how to make your own fusible bias tape with some special tips, how to miter bias tape in several different ways and invisible machine applique.

Rochelle Summers' Snowflake quilt.

Rochelle Summers of Nevada made her own version of Oriental Interlace, which she's called "Snowflake". Rochelle used Magic Key #2 to draw this design, changing the size of the Key as well as the placement of it in the design. The large print is an Alexander Henry fabric.

Here's a closeup of Rochelle's Snowflake quilt, showing the border with the large scale asian floral print. She plans to bead the whole quilt more, like this section shows with the delicate dandelion-like design. The flowers have detailed machine quilting in them.

Deann Spickard from Colorado used a Japanese wisteria print as her focus for this October 2008 class. She added beads and other embellishments to her finished quilt

In this closeup, you can see that the flowers are made from the large scale print and are little yo yo flowers, with several kinds of beads added.

Infinity quilt design with a contrast border.

Here's another sample quilt Scarlett made using the Infinity pattern. This one has a contrast border, made by switching the two fabrics required, so each fabric is used for both bias and background.
