Thea’s Jewel

Published 12 December 2014

Thea’s Jewel is a 4-color, 5-fabric quilt in a horizontal setting. It measures 81 x 81 inches. This quilt uses two different 9 inch blocks. One is the versatile 54/40 Block (Electric Quilt calls this block Garden Party) and the Tiramisu Block found in EQ7. The 54/40 Block can be paired with different blocks for many variations.

This design uses the Inklingo 9” Storm at Sea Collection. I colored the blocks in EQ7 with fabrics from Toscana, Stonehenge Bejeweled and Artisan Spirit Shimmer all by Northcott.

Thea (short for Arimathea) is due on 14 February 2015 but will be arriving sometime before that date. She will be the newest member in my immediate family. I am making a smaller version of this quilt for her.
