You saw in the past couple of Various & Sundry posts that I was selling my La Passacaglia papers and acrylic templates. I bought them in 2016 from MassDrop and I really did want to make the quilt. I do want to make the quilt. The biggest problem was choosing fabric. I don’t know why this was such a problem, but it was a daunting wall that I couldn’t climb over. I also wanted to finish the Half Hexie quilt<\/a> before starting on another EPP project.<\/p>\n

I did sell them, which is great. A woman in New Zealand bought them and she received them in a week! I sent them Monday and she received them the following Monday! WOW!!<\/p>\n

I didn’t give up on the project, however: I am making the quilt. I am making it along with the Pink Door BOM<\/a>. Their project uses Tula fabrics and larger sized paper templates. It starts in April. They describe what I get as “Your first shipment will include a set of custom acrylic templates for the Pink-Door-Size La Passacaglia quilt with 3\/8\u201d seam allowance. Each month, you\u2019ll receive an installment of Tula Pink fabric, paper pieces, the exclusive cutting assistant, 2-pack of Sewline glue pen refills, and an optional coordinating Aurifil thread-set add on that will be custom curated to the fabrics used that month. We will also be sending special super-secret surprise goodies throughout the sew along. Lastly, we have an exclusive Facebook group with custom video tutorials to get you started off on the right foot, as well as a community of your fellow block of the month participants.” I am not providing a link, because the subscriptions are closed.<\/p>\n

I have never done this kind of project before. I always, as you know, do my own project. I want my own look to the quilt, so I plan to replace a few fabrics with my own. I have been saving fabrics I thought would be good. I got a few ideas as I was perusing the Millefiori Quilts group on Facebook<\/a>. I might implement them. I’ll definitely wait until I get the jist of the whole project. We’ll have to see how it goes.<\/p>\n

One good thing is that the acrylic templates have a 3\/8″ seam allowance. I prefer the 3\/8ths seam allowance for EPP projects. I know that they will recommend glue basting. I have a good system going with clips and will try to continue with that.<\/p>\n

I went looking for information after seeing some posts from the East Dakota Quilter<\/a>. I saw a post<\/a> about making the quilt that I thought was really good. Karen Tripp, who owns the DIY Addict shop<\/a> (no affiliation!-just a happy customer) wrote about the whole process of getting started. I have to explore more of the post, but I think it will help me get started even with the BOM instructions.<\/p>\n

I also looked for other posts and will explore those.<\/p>\n

The BOM starts in July.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
