From an Antique Land

The 60" x 60" design is based on a technique of the Japanese quilter
Yoshiko Jinzenji. Blocks are constructed from machine-sewn piping attached to a muslin
base in a “log cabin” arrangement. Fabrics are cotton and silk
and center piece of each square is Japanese Kasuri fabric. Border is made of
upholstery material. The colours and structure remind of door panels of mosques and
residences in the Middle east.

Rock Garden – A 60° Wonder
Kay Hannah
Appearing to be a “One
Block Wonder” in the style of Maxine Rosenthal, this 69" x 80" quilt also
owes credit to Sara Nephew, Bethany S. Reynolds, Diane Jansen and author’s geometry
teachers. Author was unable to find the perfect rock fabric for the job and had to create her
own cubes to represent moss-covered blocks of stone. Border represents a trellis as an entrance
to the garden, and the batik represents a gravel walkway.
Machine piecing and
binding: Kay Hannah. Long arm machine quilting: Shelley DeHay-Turner.
