Good Morning All,
I'm am so jazzed with this wonderful weather change. I just love the beauty of Autumn! It's nice to pull out the sweaters or cuddle with a quilt and a book.
Here is today's new design. It is filled with rhythm and movement. It's wonderful in borders or areas with simple piecing.
Begin by stitching horizontal wavy lines across the block that are about 1 1/2" to 2" apart. Next, stitch vertical lines across the block that are about 1/2" apart. These lines are curvy too, however the curves switch orientation each time you cross the horizontal lines, meaning, the arc of the curve moves in in the first horizontal section then moves out in the second section then in again in the third section and so on. It is this consistent, repeated curve that gives the design all of its movement. Strive to keep the lines smooth and an equal distance apart.
Enjoy and have a wonderful Fall weekend,
Till next time,
Heather

This is a perfect design to add movement! I am thinking that it would really liven up a border on one of my (unfinished) quilts. Thank you for sharing!
And I love this time of year too! It's nice to have the fire on and get all snuggled in for the cold weather!
Hope to see you soon! xo
