Stash Packs are sets of 10 fabrics in Fat Eighths, usually in a theme color. usually people use small bits of fabric but in the case of Copper Flow, Patricia Caldwell used one fat eighth from a Pebbles and Rocks pack to make a stunning whole cloth quilt. Margaret Griffiths is a prolific quilt artist and also a friend. Both of these quilts use Stash Packs to great effect. The one on the left used Pink, Purple and Green Stash Packs. That Purple Thang mixed a Purple Stash pack and batik scraps to great effect. Lauren Furey makes custom minister's stoles and she made this stunning one with fabrics from a Dusk To Dawn Stash pack along with other fabrics. Another friend, and fellow quilt club member, Marcy George, made this art quilt with fabrics from 2 Stash Packs. I made 3 quilts in this pattern! I started with a king size version for my nephew and his wife, then I made a lap size with the leftover blocks and then a baby quilt with the last of the blocks! I used Color Wheel Stash Packs, several coordinating Stash Packs and scrap fabrics.

What a wonderful variety! Your rainbow quilt is on my list of quilts to make myself. I believe on a dreary winter day, it would be like sunshine. I love the minister stoles and that color palette. You have very talented customers.

I like it when you do your "back in time" review. These are such beautiful pieces. Comments are closed.
