Quilt Your Book QAL #6 - Final month of Quilt Your Book!

Quilt Your Book #6

Welcome to month #6 and final month of Quilt Your Book!

After exploring book covers with triangles, appliqués, curves, surface design and skinny strips, let’s now challenge ourselves with a challenging challenge!

“Quilt a book cover in the style of [insert here the name of a quilting teacher]”

This means that this month, get inspired by:

Using fabric to match the cover of a book.

Focusing on one element,

Copying the layout, or

Enlarging a detail!

All “in the style of…” a quilting teacher. And who that person is, is for you to decide! Choose a teacher you admire and follow to create your interpretation of a book cover in their style. Are you inspired by the work of Maria Shell? Brenda Gael Smith? Sheila Frampton Cooper?

Remember, you may use the book of your choice. Should you ever need a book cover suggestion (or two), here is Margie’s pick

And Marie’s pick.

Submit your block to Charlotte before September 18 to be included in the draw and in the “Quilt your book in the style of…” Show and Tell!

With this block, we will wrap up the “Quilt Your Book” challenge. Next month will be dedicated to the assembly of the blocks, and submitted for judging on Zoom at the October 19, 2024, meeting.

Thanks for participating!
