This is a quilt made special for Joe Knapp, my son, as a
Christmas gift in 2005. His favorite color is blue. I started collecting
numerous blue fat quarters to build him a quilt from. I used Sharyn Craig’s
“Northwind” technique for the block. I hadn’t worked with templates in a while but
found them very easy to use. It’s amazing the number of variations you can
do with the Northwind block but I stayed with the original block for this
quilt. I decided to set them in the traditional barn raising setting to allow
for more room to play with the quilting. When quilting it, I did a mixture of
free form
quilting designs that are angular and swirls to create a new look for this
quilt. I was very pleased
with the outcome. And Joe was very surprised on Christmas morning.
