Quilting From Every Angle Blog Tour


Hello everyone,
From the moment I got my hands on Nancy Purvis' Quilting from Every Angle, I was mesmerized! Her book is filled with 16 unique quilt patterns in easy to advance skill levels, making it a perfect companion for growing quilters. This book inspired me tremendously, I already have a list of quilts that I want to make from it. Nancy did a great job providing tips and ideas for designing quilts. My favorite tip is her Color Tips and Tricks, where she explained the importance of color and fabric choosing when designing a quilt, making a note on fashion trends and what colors people are wearing? Now that's a great and unique way to gather inspiration for a quilt design.  And can I please say, what an honor is to have my inspirational pin board featured in your book? 



It was so hard choosing a quilt for this blog tour - I love all of them- but I managed to contain my self and picked the Kaleidoscope Mini Quilt..which is adorable!  Nancy cleverly colored this quilt using the basic colors of the color wheel, so I decided to make a colorful impression as well with my latest collection, Dare. 


Isn't gorgeous? I loved making it, and her "My Method: Paper Piecing" is the best, super easy and helpful for this mini quilt. This book has so many adorable quilts and make sure to follow Nancy's blog for the book's updates.
