Sometimes the best way to learn a lesson isn’t just hearing the words, but putting it into practice by experimenting with it and finding its truth for yourself instead of taking someone else’s word for it.”
― A.J. Darkholme, Rise of the Morningstar
I’ve been away for awhile- – – Life calling….
I found this wonderful square, designed by Laura Wheeler and published in the ‘Cincinnati Enquirer’ in the 1930’s. It’s called ‘Hidden Flower’. I really wanted to see how it fit together and how it assembled. So by digging in my stash, I came up with some possibilities and put together a couple of Blocks.
The quarter circles were large enough to add some machine and hand appliquéd highlights. Now to translate this into materials for which I actually have enough yardage. . . .
The piece is 26×52″. It looks like the color is draining out of the bottom. Haven’t decided on a name. Any suggestions?
It is also hand quilted
