The story of our quilts

For the class of 2016-17, I chose the Attic Window pattern. When you see it in person, it does have a 3D quality. This is the second Attic Window quilt I made. The first was earlier that summer for my niece's first child.

I've already started the blocks for the class of 2018-19. The scraps were a gift from a South Amboy teacher who attended one of my SU classes (her mother owns a quilt shop). I don't know the final design. I still need to select fabric for the sashing (the part between the blocks).

(Our celebration of each new educator class. Educators share their hopes and dreams for the year by creating a quilt block during summer orientation. Quilts are hung outside Room 18 in Selover.)

This quilt made for the class of 2017-18 is composed of Log Cabin blocks. The setting refers to the the layout of the blocks. I used the Barn Raising layout. I can see the "logs" getting further apart as you reach the end of the quilt.

This the quilt for the class of 2015-16. It is the second quilt I made. The pattern is a traditional four square. Purple was one of my grandmother's favorite colors. Wonder if that could be heredity? After all, I do all my sewing on her old Singer.
