This quilt uses the
MarJen for Error magazine by Jenny Haskins, a Creative Expressions Special
Edition. It is out-of-print,
but there are
copies available here.

this quilt!
I created my quilt from the
Muted Transitions fabric collection by Benartex.
This is the second MarJen for Error quilt I have stitched. I
love the soft and delicate colors of silver and pink these fabrics create!
This quilt has 15 blocks. 8 are the embroidered fan blocks
with a floral design in the center and fussy cut fan corner. The other 7 are
dresden plate blocks, which consist of fussy cut and non-fussy cut fan
pieces. This was a fun techniques to learn and stitch! Decorative stitches
are in each and every block. Each block, sashing and border is quilted.
There are two long vertical strips of fabric that have
floral embroidery designs trailing down. It is the same design, but turned
and rotated to create a continuous line of embroidery. This is easy to do
and adds so much to the effect of the quilt!
The vertical and horizontal sashing pieces are quilted by
cross-hatching each strip. Here is a closer image:
The outer borders are completely quilted with free motion
loops stitched on the fabric. Here is a closer image:
