Evie's Quilt Challenge Journey
Evie's style is elegant, color preference: red, gold and cream colors, she's fond of Asian design, and she's not into traditional quilting.

I found some elegant fabrics and this Robert Kaufman's Imperial Collection, 24 inch Red Wisteria Mum Flower Garden panel which I purchased from from Hancock's of Paducah. It's lovely with suttle gold accents |
|
I saw some panels that were cut and sewn back together with borders and opted for that, going for asymmetry. Now what borders and should I incorporate any actual quilt blocks? |
I found this elegant Cleopatra's fan block and wanted to use them in the quilt. One in each corner?
I preferred 3 but only on two diagonal corners.
|
With black borders? |
|
Or without black borders? |
|
Test fan blocks in the backing |
|
All Finished! |
|
Quilting details: Dragonfly in the corner |

Evie loves her quilt! |

Wow, the combination of the Cleopatras Fan blocks with the Asian prints is stunning!!
Spectacular!
That quilt is really pretty! I love your addition of the Cleopatra's fans, your use of complimentary colors, and the quilting just tops it off. She will love that quilt forever!
