Indigo Double X

Margaret Schatz

Machine pieced and hand quilted by Margaret Schatz. This is my second large hand quilting project and hopefully will not be my last. I’m fortunate to be a member of a group of other hand quilters. I learned several techniques for marking and quilting, which helped me cross the finish line.

I up-cycled a yellow vintage blanket. Tannin rich Leaves are placed on the blanket piece, then rolled around a copper pipe. The bundle is steamed for 2 hours above water containing vinegar and both iron and aluminum objects. The dried fabric is then cut and sewn into this Oragami style tote.
