Curve Motion Medallion Block-of-the-Month Quilt

This beautiful quilt is one for lovers of hand sewing, a great slow project spread over 16 months. Each of the rings is constructed using curved English paper-piecing, and then appliquéd onto a grey background square (from Makower).

As the quilt is constructed in the quilt-as-you-go method, you can quilt each of the individual blocks before sewing them together, you could hand quilt as I did with beautiful embroidery-like big stitches, or maybe go to town with some free-motion machine quilting - the choice is yours! 

Each month you will receive the relevant Alison Glass Sun Prints fabrics, plus a grey background square for each block, paper templates to cut out and step-by-step colour photos and instructions on how to make up each block. I then show you how to put the whole quilt together, complete with binding, which is supplied in the final month.

Finished quilt size: Approx. 82" square.

Skill level: Experienced hand-piecer.

You will also need;
• 5.5m backing fabric
• 3m of 90" wadding
• Thread for piecing and for quilting - I use Aurifil's 50wt cotton for piecing and a 12wt for hand quilting. You can purchase a medium grey 50wt thread here which should blend into all your colours for piecing, or if you prefer to colour match, I have put together a collection of six Aurifil threads here. If you choose to hand-quilt as I did, I also stock the Ivory Aurifil 12wt here.
