Block 6 is called a Fan block for obvious reasons.......the lace motif at the bottom set the tone for the whole block with fan shaped stitches and other fan charms added. The beige satin patch in the centre shone like a beacon, overshadowing everything else so I Kantha quilted it to give it more texture and less shine. I didn't realise when I did this that February's Victorian Symbolism challenge with the on-line crazy quilt group is Fans so I'm out of sequence. Not to worry, on to block 7.

ReplyDeleteWOW I'm not sure what Kantha quilting is but when I clickeded on the image I see it's sort of like smocking and WOW a fan resemblance for sure! AWESOME!
