Fan Quilt


Just finished this Fan Quilt top. It's now ready to start quilting.
Here is how to info for you.

These are the parts to put together. I sew the fan blades first.


You will need to press all the seams to one direction.

Next i sew the small end of the fan on.

Yes i do pin. Start in the middle then the ends.

Nest is the large background. Again i do pin. The same as the small end. There is a short video on my Ustream page.

I like to sew with the seams on top so i can make sure the seam
stays going the right way when it goes under the needle.

After sewing again press the seam. Square up your block.
I decided to add a black border around each fan at 2 1/2 inches. I also added the same black to the outside border at 6 inches. You can do yours any way you like. I think the black brings out the colors in the fan blades. This Top fits the top of my King size bed.

Enjoy!
Comments welcome.
