I have had Speckled fabric on my must make list since my last quilt pattern but I just could not pull it together. So that means I had to use it for this second pattern.

Da-da-da-dah the Woven Petals quilt.

It was July when I started designing this one and fall was on the horizon. I actually had the first idea for this quilt while at church doodling in my journal.

I felt the need to create something that was fall but not traditional fall. I wanted a blue hue in the quilt somehow. So after scouring Pinterest for fall color pallets it brought me to this pallets. Then matched it with Speckled fabrics. You can check out all of the Speckled colors offered HERE.

The fabric is the most wonderful mix of luscious color and visual texture. Shout out to Lamb and Loom fabric for getting these too me super quick during lovely COVID shipping.

The hardest part of this quilt was deciding the order of the colored columns or maybe it was the quilting. Anyway I machine quilted this on my domestic/normal sewing machine. It was so different from my normal longarm work so I enjoyed the change up.

I sew on a Bernina 770QE and I used stitch 1396 with the settings in the image below. I tried a bunch of wavy stitches and I like this one the best. It now my go to wavy stitch.

This quilt was a blast and outside of my norm. I enjoyed creating the pattern and the templates which were a first for me. I want you to feel capable and confident in making this pattern so I also created some tutorials to help with the curves.
