CASK57: Newfangled Angles
|
Technique: Canvas Level: Advanced Intermediate and Beyond Class Length: 2 Days Kit Price: $ 132 to 140 (choices) Ground: 18-count Zweigart black, antique blue or Victorian green mono canvas Finished Size: 12 3/4" x 12 7/8" Original version on black canvas with peacock blue accents <<<< Victorian green canvas version with coral and red-coral accents <<<< |
Course Description:
Newfangled Angles is an unusual four-way “star” geometric design that was inspired by a desire to use oblique outlines in the main framework. I find these lines more interesting than the usual vertical, horizontal and diagonal lines found in traditional quilt patterns and the challenge of creating patterns that reinforce the less common shapes of triangles, trapezoids and parallelograms was appealing. The original border repeats the star motif in blackwork outlines and the open background is also a blackwork pattern.
Color Choice:
A Victorian green or antique blue canvas may be substituted for the black canvas. The model has peacock blue accents but jade can be substituted for the two peacock blue threads. The combination on the antique blue canvas will have light blue accents. The Victorian green color option will have coral and red-coral accents. All of the color choices will have gold outlines but students may choose from three different shades of gold metallic.
Prework:
Some advanced preparation is required for this class. One quadrant of the interior design must be outlined in back stitches and Step 1of the border must be placed (simple zig zag outline). Estimated time: 6-8 hours.
