A Little Fandango

With Central Park shipping soon, it seemed like a good time to finally make something from Fandango; all I needed was a little time, mojo and inspiration. I think I found it!

I rifled through my stash of patterns (or more truthfully, my store's stash of patterns), and decided on Rosettes, by Fig Tree Quilts.


I've cut out most bits, and started piecing. I'm really looking forward to seeing how it all comes together, especially as I've chosen to use a single cream background fabric (Bella Solids Fig Tree Cream) rather than the four the pattern calls for.

It will look great Kate. I love Fandango and Verna and have a Fandango JR and Bella Cream to make a quilt as well. xxx

Good Luck, I've heard this pattern requires a little fudging to get the blocks just right, but it's a beauty so well worth the effort I think. I'll be eager for an update on this project!

It's a fabulous quilt and will look so great in Fandango. I have all the blocks cut out ready to make at a quilting retreat later this year. I used April Cornell's "Nostalgia" - a lovely old-fashioned looking polished cotton and lots of creams from my stash. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
