PRICE DROP! Quilters LOVE local news... help us help The Kent Dispatch. $300 off!


Our featured "Bylines" blue and white quilt is a contemporary version of a traditional string quilt.  String quilts were typically composed of left-over scraps or thin strips from many different quilting and sewing projects and often done in multiple colors. 


We chose a clean blue and white version and used the dark blue as the center of each block. Using a muslin foundation layer, the varied strips were sewn out from the center on each side and trimmed to a standard size.  The blocks could be arranged in many patterns and we chose the diamond motif. 


The blue and white coloring is a classic that would enhance any home, and would make a thoughtful wedding gift.

Mosaic Tiles
$175

SOLD! THANK YOU!


The use of the textured fabric gives this design the look of granite or marble floor tiles.


The pattern is a variation of the "Disappearing Nine-Patch" block and began with four blocks of a tic-tac-toe pattern. Each block is sewn together, cut apart in sections, shuffled around and re-sewn into four new blocks that are then joined together to form a new pattern. Machine pieced and quilted by Veralyn Davee.


This fantastic wall hanging can be seen at ACE Hardware in the Kent Green, along with some of Veralyn's quilts from prior years' Kent Quilt Trail.
