Morris Projects

Birds in a Cherry Tree

Bobbi Finley

24" Square

Looking around the internet I've noticed some projects made using the William Morris reproduction prints I've been designing for Moda. Above is a tile quilt Bobbi adapted from an arts and crafts embroidery panel. She's going to be offering a kit and pattern. I'll let you know when. Right now it's  a good idea on how to adapt embroidery or tapestry designs to patchwork. For more about the tile quilt technique see the book she wrote with Carol Gilham Jones called Tile Quilt Revival.

The pattern we packaged with the Morris Tapestry line last fall is called Morris Dance, a 9-patch that shades in a diagonal direction. Above is the model from the Peace and Applique Quilt Shop.
