I have been writing about En Provence and the Triple Stars a lot. They are the main projects, though I slip in other sewing here and there.
My design wall doesn’t have a lot on it at present, though I thought it would be interesting to show you how I work with a smaller design wall and a larger quilt.
Off hand I don’t know how large En Provence will be. I am doing the large version, so I am sure those of you who have made it know. I am not, usually focused on sizes. Regardless of the final size, it won’t fit on my design wall after a few more rows and columns.
1 – En Provence. I am working from the left bottom corner up towards the right top corner. This is the usual way I put a quilt together, because then I can be sure that, at least, the bottom will be on the design wall.
2 – En Provence fold. I fold the quilt and cover part of the quilt I don’t need to see right at the moment. Since I am working on adding a column on the right, the middle part isn’t needed, except for reference right now. (You might have to enlarge the photo to see the fold.
3 – Triple Star. This is my reference block.
4 – Triple Star. This is my current block in progress, n.12.
The last design wall Monday was back in March. Take a look at that post to see my progress. I am linking up with Patchwork Times, uh Small Quilts and Doll Quilts, the new hosting site of Design Wall Monday. Since I haven’t posted a Design Wall Monday in awhile, this is the first I have heard of this.
Thank you for your participation at the Show and Tell Monday !! Hug Bambi
Thanks to you, Bambi, for stopping by.
Love your color palette for En Provence! It’s a lot of pinning to get those blocks assembled into rows and stitched!
Thanks, Kate! Yes, it is a lot of pinning and figuring out which way to nest seams. It is totally worth it, though. I am pleased with how the piece is coming out so far.
