TASTER: New Trapunto Patterns from Sylvia Critcher
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 01-Feb-2017
A varied selection of new patterns from Sylvia which were featured in the inspirational pages at the back of her book “Raised Quilt and Stitch” which we learnt about in an earlier interview.
So here Sylvia shows us her Flitterbugs cushion pattern, which is part of the bugs and moths series of patterns, and includes some delightful caterpillars.
There is a Valentine cushion worked in red thread (Sylvia loves to use coloured threads when she can).
There is her Wild Rose cushion, which can also be worked smaller as a wedding ring cushion, and looks particularly lovely when worked in silk.
Finally the Night Moths – again part of the bugs series, and again worked in silk.
All this patterns you can find in our website.
