Interlocked Ruler Work Class

10/21/2022

0 Comments

 
Happy Friday ! The end of the work week for some, time for creative pursuits & fun for others. Gotta love weekends. I’m sharing today to inspire you! Maybe this weekend you’ll dust off your rulers & try them ? 

On Tuesday I taught my Interlocked Ruler Work class  For Long Arm Machines at Creekbank Sewing in Mount Forest and I thought I would show you what the students accomplished. They came to class with their Interlocked quilt top all sewn together & then we worked on filling the spaces with ruler &  free motion fill work. For those of you don’t know Interlocked is my pattern available here. Pictures of all of our work is shown below.

Some of the student quilts:

*New* Pattern Interlocked

My new pattern Interlocked is available now in my shop page.  The reason I designed this quilt was 5 fold.... 1.  I wanted to practise with my new Bernina Q20 Long Arm,  2.  I wanted a sampler style quilt to try out my Amanda Murphy Good Measure Rulers,  3.  I am demonstrating at Creekbank Sewing Center's Long Arm Convention today June 9th  and tomorrow  June 10th and needed a demo sample , 4. It's so much fun to design and play with fantastic sewing resources and  5.  I hope quilters will be inspired to try a pattern that allows them some space to show off their quilting, be it  by hand or machine !
About the pattern Interlocked:
This pattern makes a 48” x 48” quilt, perfect for a baby, crib quilt, wall quilt, play mat or a lovely lap quilt.  It’s also a great size to practise free motion quilting or ruler work on both domestic & long arm quilting machines.  The piecing is simple & the interlocked design is dynamic.  Make it modern with fabric & quilting designs or make it traditional, the choice is yours to make. Featured at Creekbank Sewing Center, Mount Forest “Long Arm Convention”.
You can purchase the pattern for download here or if you want to attend the Longarm Convention tomorrow, please call Creekbank Sewing at 519-323-2693.  *Note it's for all quilters not just for long armers as the demos , info & mini trunk shows x 2 (Sharon Fisher & myself) 
 relate to all quilters*
Thanks for reading this post, Have a Happy Thursday!😊
