Front Porch Quilting Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Just thinking ahead and am wondering if you all have ideas on quilting one block wonders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 My thought is that since they are usually so busy, but in a great way, that something relatively simple to allow the fabric to shine. Someday... I'll finish piecing mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front Porch Quilting Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 it is a kaleidoscope quilt. Kind of like a stack and whack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankiequilter Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I also have a One Block Wonder to quilt and am interested in the opinions of others on how to quilt it. Because it has so many angles I'm thinking something simple with curves would soften it. Perhaps swirls, Baptist Fan, or clam shells. Regarding what is a One Block Wonder, it is a quilt made from one fabric, either hexagon or ocatagon shaped blocks that gives a kaleidescope look, much like a stack-n-whack quilt. Do a Google search for One Block Wonder and it will bring up sites where you can view some pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witha'K'quilting Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Boy, I wish mine was done too. Jessica has done some nice quilting on the ones she quilted. I was thinking swirls or e2e like Carmen suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carolinequilts Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Hi. I have made a few 'One Block Wonders' but only quilted one of my own (simply with a nice E2E). I did teach courses on how to make them though and have seen many. They are fantastically fun to make!! What Jessica has done though with the quilting on hers (in her web photos) are truly beautiful. What a fabulous way to take a great concept into an even greater finish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
