Fiddlebobs OP 25, 26 from Virtual Quilter

There are some intriguing little variations of the basic block in the first design today, which I created to echo what happened when half of one of the blocks disappeared when added to the filler blocks around the blocks set on point.

The second design looks very busy, partly caused by the quilting motifs which would be more discreetly coloured in a real quilt.

Lots of fiddly applique in this project file, so I am glad we have fusible webbing and sewing machines, unlike when I started … we did have sewing machines, but many of us had yet to update ...

I had a glimpse of some antique quilts a week ago, and these designs would have blended in well.

I love the second one.

Very interesting!

Very interesting, but maybe a bit too tangled up!

Fiddling!

More fiddling, and now I have a new block in this project file to fiddle with. I was going to use it in this design but it didn’t really look right.

Pretty colours, dainty shapes, and interesting design,

Love some of the lines created by the quilting motifs in both designs.

Interesting!

Love it! Intricate applique and quilting in the centre and lovely applique in the border, and other than outlining the applique pieces the only quilting in the border would be cross hatch!

I like it, though maybe a bit busy.

There should always be some spaces for the quilting to shine!

Love the second.

Not only space for some quilting, but some designs have been added.

Love this series of designs, and these two are good examples of the standard.

I am not even going to try to pick a favourite today, but you are welcome to make a pick!

Interesting design, and I love the name of this project file.

Love the second one!

Today’s virtual task for me is to decorate Christmas trees … the trees I was drawing for this month’s Virtual Quilt Challenge. I will share them tomorrow.
