What’s On the Design Wall: “Scraphenge”

tierneycreates: a fusion of textiles and smiles

This post is a follow up to my previous post What’s On The Design Wall: Stonehenge Scrappy Freeform Log Cabin, where I was using the freeform/improvisational log cabin block piecing technique – “log jamming” – to create a scrap quilt from my Northcott Fabrics Stonehenge line scraps.

I completed all the blocks and was deciding on a layout.

The layout I came up with was one in which the blocks set in other colors besides the cream Stonehenge fabric, were set in the center of the quilt (except for 4 I saved to use as cornerstones).

I decided to name the piece “Scraphenge” since it was made from Stonehenge fabric line scraps!

It is not a very large quilt, it measures 55 inches tall by 48 inches wide (139 cm by 122 cm).

Right now I am trying to decide whether to quilt it myself or send it to a long arm quilter. However for now I am just going to leave it up on the design wall as I have other projects in queue I want to work on (smile).

  13. so when it is on the design wall it is not fully quilted? It is just the cover part with all the fun work you did? If that is the case – I would send it to the quilter and get on with another project ?

    1. I just pieced the fabric together and I have not made it into a “quilt sandwich” with the pieced quilt top, batting and a backing. I have to create that sandwich whether or not I send it to the long arm quilting to stitch all the layers together and “quilt” it. I might “quilt” it myself on my domestic machine, just got to decide if I want to maneuver all those layers (pinned down/together) through my machine or pay someone else to do it 🙂
