Charm Pack Challenge
One of our 2024 Challenges has been to make the Moda Love Charm quilt using a single Charm Pack and background fabric. The quilt is a combination of squares and half-square triangles which are carefully placed to achieve this star design. We hope you enjoy the man different interpretations of this quilt.
Down on the Farm - by Karen H
Made with When I found out that a colleague of mine was expecting a baby, this farmyard pack was the perfect choice! Because the four squares with farm scenes are directional, I made the star from a background colour. I hope baby spends many happy hours on or under it!
Chequerboard Star - by Chrissie
I used a black background to show off the charm square colours. The cross-hatch quilting was chosen to echo the pattern of the fabric and the areas outside the star gave me a chance to practice my free motion quilting in a feather design
Up on the Roof - by Lyn
The piece was inspired by a painting I bought showing abstract buildings and roofs. Orange and blue dominated the picture. I used the same colours to create my quilt and the angular triangles and squares reflected the painting. The quilting was created by simple hand stitching. The buttons had been acquired from A Brown and Co Buttons in Addiscombe, before it closed in 2019, so a nod to Addiscombe where the quilt was created
