Check out this adorable fabric by SEI and Robert Kaufman...so cute! I had an opportunity to make a quilt for a magazine, but the turnaround time was a matter of days; so a plan was required. Thank goodness for EQ6...my road map for so many quilts. I designed the quilt, printed out my fabric requirements, and got to work. So many times I'll cut out a ton of fabric, and piece blocks, and arrange things on a design wall until I find a pleasing configuration, but there was no time for that kind of play...this was business!
So I cut out all my fabric, stacked everything by block, and sewed, and sewed, and sewed. At one point I was ready to throw myself, or my sewing out the window...directional fabrics are the bane of my existence at times. More times then I like to count my little seam ripper was employed. In the end, all of the elephants, and friends are all marching right side up!
Keep an eye out for this sweet quilt in the near future!
