Journal Quilts - Windows and Doors.

Last month was a good opportunity to revisit the Attic Window Block as the theme was Window and Doors.

Everyone seems to have a favourite technique and we looked at six different ways to make this traditional block.

These are some of the journal quilts on show this month.

Sue Ives - Composite Door

Chris Hinchliff - Born to Quilt

Wendy Harkness - Winter Window View

Janet Wells - Autumn Fall

Todays lesson has also been an opportunity to catch up on the Message theme where we looked at oil bars, paper lamination, and printing pictures.

Journal Quilts - Messages

The Modern & Art Quilt group have been busy over the last few months and I have fallen behind in cataloguing their wonderful journal quilts.

These are the quilts produced with the theme of messages. 

We looked at various ways of adding text to our quilts including paper lamination, fabrics for printing. Stencilling using oil bar paint sticks and adding texture by painting bondaweb with acrylic paints.
