Daily Practice Quilt no. 2
Daily Practice Quilt no. 2
Mixed textiles
Hand pieced, hand appliquéd, hand embroidered, and hand quilted
2022
36 x 36”
This story quilt was made with my 4th pattern. The instructions take the maker through a 31-day Daily Practice with embroidery, appliqué, and patchwork. Prompts include a running stitch doodle in a hoop, yo-yo's, depicting an article of clothing, tracing part of your body, and including an item that usually leaves home with you. The pattern launched with Creativebug in 2022; you can see the quilts on Instagram with #DailyPracticeQAL, and you can sew your own version here.
One of my favorite challenges for makers is to see how many stitches they can load onto a single pull of their needle.
