Helen loves to create simple quilts, and this has an amazing 3 D effect without a Y seam involved.
Description
In these two quilts Helen has used Oakshott fabrics to great effect to create the 3D illusion. So, you need to think about the tonal and colour value of your fabrics against each other.
Helen shares with us how to strip piece when creating the section of the hexagon. And rather than get involved in all that ‘Y’seam nonsense, shares her clever idea of building the quilt in strips of half hexagons.
Moreover, if you have enjoyed Helen’s pattern, then you can find more by visiting her own website.
