Sunday sketch #491
I made a quilt recently (which I’ll share in a few weeks’ time) that used loads of wide curves – the same size/shape that I used in my quilts Blue Wave, Whirlwind and Quattro. Basically a 7″ (finished) drunkard’s path unit with a 3.5″ (finished) drunkard’s path cut out of it. A bit like a macaroni! It’s such a great shape, and so easy to piece thanks to drunkard’s path templates from Papper, Sax, Sten.

More sawtooth stars this week, since I’m building on last week’s sketch. It’s essentially the same underlying design, just coloured differently. Let me show you how I got here from there!
Sunday sketch #489
Would you believe that I designed this week’s sketch and drafted this blog post almost two weeks ago, and only realised last Wednesday that the basic design is the same as Sunday sketch #440 (posted last December)?! I always knew it would happen eventually… I’ve copied myself! 🙂
I thought about ditching this post, but in the end decided to keep it for a few reasons. First, it’s the lead-in to next week’s sketch, and next week’s blog post refers back to this one in a few places. And second, I’ve explored different colour placement (and palettes) here, which shows off the versatility of this design. So let’s get into it!
