All Winterland
blocks are foundation paper pieced.
The three
dimensional fir trees are inserted while joining the units of the
blocks.
Years ago I
didn’t plan to publish an instruction for this quilt so
unfortunately the setting is a little bit intricate because of its
inset seams. In the guidance for this quilt you will find an
alternative setting for the winterland quilt, where the blocks are
joined only with straight seams to build smaller units. These units
are assembled as usually without any inset seams. Also sewing the
original quilt I used a trick to avoid the inset seams: the
concerned seams are only sewn half way.
Or better,
let your imagination run free; you can find some winterlandquilts
with different layouts in the guestgallery.
