Flapjacks
-
This is one block that makes up the Flapjack pattern by the Fat Quarter Shop. The original pattern calls for 3 1/2” x 8” strips of print fabric and 3 1/2” square for the pickle background fabric.
I used a 2 1/2” wide strips of a pre-cut fabric collection that I already had on hand. I adjusted the pattern to 2 1/2” squares for the pickle background. The block is 6 1/2” x 12”.

I used a pre-cut jellyroll of Kaffe Fassett Collective Classics- Citrus Island. The background is Kona Cotton Pickle.
Since I adjusted the pattern to fit my fabric, it resulted in a smaller block. I added an extra row on the quilt to make up the difference.

I quilted this on my longarm machine using a computerized edge to edge pattern called Threadsongs Chain Maille from Urban Elementz.

Here is a close up of the quilting pattern.

I used my domestic machine to attach the binding to the front of the quilt. I hand sew the binding on the back of most of my quilts.
-
My quilt labels are attached to the back under the binding. The clips hold the binding in place until it’s tacked down.
The backing fabric is called Natures Study Hyacinth Hexie.
