The Raven by Blackbird designs.

well i am now making this fabulous quilt.

 Been wanting to for a little while and finally bought the book at the FOQ and managed to buy pretty much all the fabrics, well my choices of fabric as they didn't do it as a kit so i had to find my own and did pretty well finding suitable and then adding from my stash,
i didn't realize how big each block was until i started , it says cut each at 20.5" i cut at 22" to be safe and so glad i did as not sure it would have all fitted on, so its going to be a nice big size.

scroll down to the bottom to see the original.


i decided it would be best to do a quilt as you go, as i would not have enjoyed quilting the whole of this when all together !! wow that would be a job and a half, going to be tricky doing the joins let alone all of it when together!!

i am loving it, hand appliqued and then machine quilted.

block 1 all finished and quilted.




block 2 sewn on and layered, waiting to be quilted.




block 3 all pinned and half sewn.
