Welcome to this week's Linky Party!
The theme this week is Stack
& Whack (S&W) Quilts. According to Quilt Block of the
Month Glossary, a “Stack
and Whack Quilt is one where blocks of fabric are stacked on top of each other
so that the patterns are aligned, then they are cut in such a way that when
pieced together properly, the sewn blocks will form a kaleidoscope pattern.” This is one kind of stack & whack quilt. Other S&W
quilts are made by stacking, whacking and shuffling any number of fabrics to
make unique and diverse blocks.
Please enter your
name and a link to your blog or a picture in Flickr.
If you don't have a blog or a Flickr account, email me (hputi01@gmail.com)
a picture of your quilt and a brief write-up and I will post it on my blog page
called Members' Quilts.
Link up your quilts or blocks
(you may enter more than once) using Mister Linky below and do visit as many of the
other links as you can. You will get some great ideas and may even find
new followers and/or blogs to follow.
At the end of each month, all
linky entries for that month will be tallied and one lucky winner will receive a
charm pack of 20 (5") scrappy squares! The monthly giveaway is open
to residents within and outside the United States.
Be sure to check back each week
to participate in a different quilt theme.
I made this quilt for my son. It is a stack and whack, but unfortunately, I used Paula Nadelstern's method of tracing onto a template and then cutting them out. Took ages!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your quilt with us, Vanita. I'm assuming Oriental Kaleidoscope is the S&W quilt you wished to feature here. It's lovely!
