Morris Manor: Best of Morris from Moda, Denniele & Me

 

County Roads by Denniele Bohannon

She used prints from my latest line of William Morris reproductions...

...which should be in your shop soon.

Denniele, who loves a complex pieced design, has

stitched patterns for her Louanna Mary Quilt Design

shop.

 Here's one she finished but decided not to pattern. So you get a free pattern here.

Here are the 12" finished blocks with 2 different fussy-cut centers.

She found the design in BlockBase+, which tells us it was a Laura Wheeler pattern from the Old Chelsea Station Needlecraft Company. At the bottom of the clipping they tell you it's "easy for beginners." They often said that but they were often wrong. 

(Note to Laura: "Beginner patterns have straight seams and no set-in pieces.")

Long arm quilting by Becky Collis

But if you can piece curves and Y-seams....It's a wonderful design. Here's the original pattern with an octagon in the center rather than a circle.

Print these two sheets 8-1/2 x 11".

You might want a border for your 48" quilt.

Denniele also sketched it with blocks on point.

And Becky Collis pieced and quilted Denniele's pattern with the circle.

Collaboration!
