Northcott’s new modern division, Figo, has just released another new line.
I had the privilege of quilting some of their quilt for this new line.
Just a side note, I do not receive any compensation for posting this on my blog;
I thought that you might enjoy seeing the new fabrics and some of the new
patterns.
I’m unsure of who designed the quilt pattern and fabrics. I do try to keep track
of all of this pertinent information for you but not this time. I will work on this
for future reference.
The backing fabric. Karlee Porter designed the orange peel motif that was
stitched all over the quilt top. A clear monofilament thread was used for the
top of the quilt and matching polyester thread for the backing.
Whenever I use a Karlee Porter motif, the motif needs to be redesigned
in my digital program, Creative Studio 7, from Gammill, so that the motifs
are quilted tightly together.
This quilt has a design stitched onto it that is called “Modern Wave” by
Anita Shackelford. She digitally designs alot of quilting patterns; this one is
amongst one of my favorites. It’s so cool to watch it being stitched out and to
even look at it later, as it looks like there are actual moving waves on a stationary
quilt.
Then Came June created this Nova Star Quilt. Alot of piecing involved but beuatiful when
completed.
The backing fabric is covered in cactus.Glad the fabric is soft and not prickly.
Circles were quilted all over these hexagons. I love all the stitching: it creates
so much texture. And I love texture!!
The backing fabric has cats all over it. For all those cat lovers out there, you will
love this new line.
The color orange is really beginning to grow on me. This quilt is very cheery and makes
me happy just looking at it. Don’t we all need a shot of happiness right now?
Kitchen Table Quilting designed this quilt.
The backing fabric is cheerful as well.
“Solistice Lights” by Cotton + Joy is the name of this quilt. Monofilament thread was used on the
front and matching thread again, on the backing.
I could go for an ice cream cone right now. r
The backing fabric looks like alot of fun. Take a closer peek and you will
see people swimming in the water.
This quilt was designed by Pen +Paper Patterns. The title of the quilt is “Fresh As A Daisy.
Christina wanted straight line quilting, which I love, and the end result is texture.
The Mary Quilt was designed by Kitchen Table Quilting. She has designed alot of quilts.
The backing fabric is full of flowers too. A grid was stitched all over the quilt top.
I actually designed it myself. I am getting a little braver these days and trying out some
new ideas. It’s not as scary as I thought it was. Maybe it’s time for you to try some
new things too.
Hope you have a good week.
