I started this quilt several years ago in an EBHQ class by Krista Hennebury @poppyprint, called Speed Date with Improv. This is the almost finished quilt top. I might add more white fabric to the top and/or black to the bottom.
Here is what my blocks from this workshop looked like at the end of the workshop:
They looked like houses to me. I photographed them and piled them in a box. I started working on them recently. I got rid of the petal shapes on the bottom and some of the quarter square triangle blocks that were less house shaped. I added a bunch of new blocks and figured out how to sew them together.
This was an intermediate stage of this quilt:
When I was happy with the block placement, I drew on a photo to figure out how to sew the pieces together since the blocks were different sizes.
Here’s my mockup:
This is the second Cubist inspired quilt I made for the SAQA show called Art Movements- making quilts inspired by art movements. I finished the previous quilt- the Cubist style village, three and a half days before the deadline. In those three and a half days I made this quilt! It’s fabric collage with fusible web. I didn’t do any sewing on it until I quilted it. If I had pieced it, it would have taken a lot more time to make. It unintentionally looks a little like a friend of mine.
