Form Follows Color, made and quilted by Christiane Ermke
Christiane Ermke says, "My quilt group (Piece Makers) had a challenge in 2023. We randomly picked every month a shape and a color and created something quilty out of these two prompts."
Christiane says that her biggest challenge was to find a way to combine all the blocks in a pleasing way. Creating a "path" that connects the blocks is a fabulous idea. We love her technique:
p.s. We recently updated our Free Pattern Days for Easy Modern Quilts (Part 1 and Part 2). We hope you enjoy this FREE Windham Fabrics pattern called City Cycles by Tammy Vasser. It uses a similar setting to showcase fabrics from a collection (CLICK HERE for PDF download!)
