    Memories in Aruba

    February 22, 2016

    What a fantastic way to show off Oakshott's trademark shot cotton weave using a traditional block and an Aruba Fat Quarter Pack. Rita Hodge of RedPepperQuilts chose this block because
     'the directional piecing creates a beautiful luminous, iridescent effect.'
    MEMQKIT_Memories-Quilt_detail1
    The quilt's finished size is 60 inches/1.5 metres square and the pattern is available from RedPepperQuilts Etsy Store and Pattern Store.

    Aruba Nine-Patch Wall Hanging

    February 21, 2016

    Once again ace designer Lynne Goldsworthy of LilysQuilts has come up with a stunner, this time using the Aruba Fat Eighths Pack. This traditional design has a decidedly modern feel and the new kit has been christened  Aruba Nine-Patch Wall Hanging AR9QHKIT_Aruba-Nine-Patch-Wall-Hanging_Lynne -Goldsworthy2 Lynne loves:
    'the effect of a nine-patch on point, creating an Irish chain and the interesting play and contrast when the same block is used together in two different ways.'
    Buy the kit and pattern from Oakshott Fabrics (includes all the fabric for quilt top and binding); the finished size is 40 inches/1 metre square. AR9QHKIT_Aruba-Nine-Patch-Wall-Hanging_detail2 Read more
