I love starting off the new year with a blank to-do list – it gives me a great chance to play around with new ideas and see where the creative process takes me. This January I started thinking about orange peel quilts and thinking about how I can turn that classic motif into something new and fresh.
After much trial and error, I came up with the idea of using “orange peel” curves within a hexagon background creating a daisy shaped design. And to my delight, a little star emerged in the centre!
I drafted up some templates and played around with some test blocks until I was satisfied with the shape of the petals, and the construction of the block. Then… time to cut into the GOOD fabric.
