It's time for another Island Batik blog hop to introduce new collections! This time, we were all tasked to create an applique quilt using an edge painting technique developed by Barbara Persing & Mary Hoover of 4th and 6th Designs. We were each sent a variety of 40 weight Aurifil Threads that coordinate with our assigned collections.
The blog hop starts today and continues for most of the month of September. Every Friday, Island Batik will have a new giveaway. Additionally, many of the Island Batik ambassadors will include a bonus giveaway as part of their posts.
I was sent the Geometric Symphony collection designs by Jerry Khiev. Geometric Symphony features purples, magenta, and golds with heavily geometric designs. You'll have to wait until September 17th to see my project, but there is lots of other inspiration in the meantime! Check out the full schedule of the hop:
