When I design quilt patterns I put my heart and soul into the design. For my fabric line Sunday Drive, I designed 'Take the Roundabout' in my signature multiple size block format. You've been doing my solstice, so you have an idea of how much fun it is do multi size blocks!
When I designed this quilt I wanted to add some of the things that we see on our Sunday drive, and one of those is a roundabout! They seem to be coming back in style for traffic control, we find them on our travels more now than we used to.
Applique, stars, blocks and settings areas, all using my Sunday Drive Fabric!
On page 11 of the pattern is the pattern grouped into 5 sections for sewing the top.
We'll go clockwise, starting at the top left of the quilt to sew the units each month. For June & July we'll focus on this first unit and prepping applique shapes.
Your Assignment for two weeks
- Trace all the applique shapes for the quilt onto fusible if doing fusible, or create your freezer paper or plastic templates. However you get ready to do shapes. If you want to learn how to do fusible applique by machine, My Teach Me to Applique Book as everything you need to know with photo step outs. It's a class in a book. I use heat n bond lite for my fusible and these scissors
- Select fabric for the whole quilt. You might be following my colors with my fabric, or doing your own colors. Time to get all your supplies together for the quilt.
On the 1st and 3rd Friday of each month starting in today, June 2, ending November 17, I'll assign what to sew from my quilt.
