Hello, fellow quilters and craft enthusiasts! It’s Tamara here from Remi Vail Studio, and today I’m thrilled to share with you a delightful project that has brightened up my crafting table - the Daisy Flower Quilt Block. This charming little project is not only a joy to make but also a beautiful piece to display or incorporate into larger quilting endeavors.
Crafting the Daisy
The journey to creating this adorable 3.5-inch daisy began with an incredible foundation paper piecing pattern designed by the talented Liza Taylor Handmade. Foundation paper piecing allows for precision in our quilting projects, and this pattern is a perfect example of how detailed and intricate these designs can be.
For this project, I chose a mix of fabrics from some of my favorite fabric designers - Fableism, Ruby Star Society, Liberty Fabrics, and Art Gallery Fabrics. Each fabric brought a unique texture and color to the table, culminating in a vibrant and eye-catching daisy block.
The Emotional Thread
There’s something profoundly gratifying about watching a piece come together as you sew each fabric into place. The colors and textures intertwine, much like the stories we stitch into every quilt we create. This daisy may be small, but it represents a piece of a larger narrative about creativity and expression through fabric.
What’s Next for the Daisy?
Now, this is where I turn to you, my creative community! I’d love to hear your ideas on how to use this pretty daisy. Should it become a part of a quilted garden on a throw, or perhaps it could blossom into a centerpiece on a tote bag? Share your thoughts and suggestions in the comments below!
