Topic: Border appliques (1/2) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month creative journey along America’s backcountry roads as we bring you "The Patchwork Barn Quilt," a fabulous quilt designed especially for TQS by Edyta Sitar. A spectacular medallion quilt featuring a barn nestled amongst rows of ‘crops’ (blocks). Edyta’s design inspiration was the result of observing the painted quilt blocks on the side of barns as she traveled across the country.

Known for her love of colorfully elegant scrap quilts, Edyta has this time, used her magic touch by combining a wide variety of blue and cream fabrics set against a creamy background. The resulting design is a stunning, but quieter scrap quilt that is sure to be a family favorite for generations to come. Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns.

I was able to source ALL the fabric this morning from 3 different online sites. I got the majority from Missouri Star Quilt Co, some of the missing from the Fat Quarter shop, and the balance from Quilt Basket. In some cases, I had to buy a minimum of 1/2 yard, (FQS and Quilt Basket), however with 4.5 yds of backing fabric my total cost was lower than the kit w/o the backing fabric. Would have purchased the kit, hoewever they are SOLD OUT of the Blue Sky kit. So if you want the Blue Sky Color way, it is still possible. ☺️

JudithA OFFLINE Posts: 520 Thank you received: 269	Cahanne, Maybe you could contact Laundry Basket Quilts and ask if you could exchange your Silhouettes for Snippets. They are the same price. Just a suggestion. Judy Austin

bbquiltmaker OFFLINE Posts: 1498 Thank you received: 1762	cahanne, Edyta did not say there was a choice--she never mentioned Snippets.. The Kit includes only Silhouettes and that is what the Kit contents clearly list. Someone asked on the Forum if Snippets are available and someone else posted you could find them on Laundrybasketquilts.com, in Edyta's online store, under "New" products. I hope this clarifies what you received with your kit.

cahnanne OFFLINE Posts: 13 Thank you received: 18	I received my kit - included are the Sillouettes appliqué packets, NOT the Snippets. There wasn’t a way to request which you prefer, and I’d not seen the show where Edyta told that you could get them either way. I was hoping to do needleturn on the appliqué so feel a little disappointed. Will search out the best way to achieve a fine finish with the raw edge.

JudithA OFFLINE Posts: 520 Thank you received: 269	Glacerda, I bought my Blue Sky fabric at least 6 months ago for another project at a local quilt shop when it first came out. I don't know if they have much left now, but I will email you privately. Judy Austin

Judy Austin came up with the answer--Snippets for the Patchwork Barn are available for sale on the Laundry Basket quilts website.
store4349022.ecwid.com/#!/Snippet-Patchwork-Barn/p/98757693/category=8807317&forcescroll=true

Remember you need 3 packages for the Patchwork Barn quilt. And remember the difference:

Silhouettes are pre-cut, pre-fused appliqué shapes without seam allowances.
Snippets are pre-cut, NOT pre-fused and include seam allowances--perfect for needle turn hand appliqué.

Thank you, Judy, for tracking this down--I did not look under "New" when searching for these.

glacerda OFFLINE Posts: 145 Thank you received: 74	Thanks for the info. I have another question for you where did you find the Blue Sky fabric? I’ve looked for it on lots of websites but can’t seem to find it. I would really like 1/2 yd or a large fat quarter bundle.

I have plenty of Blue Sky fabric left over from another Laundry Basket project, so I don't need to buy the whole kit, but I want to purchase the laser-cut applique shapes.
I emailed TQS asking if I could purchase them separately, but did not get a reply, so I checked the Laundry Basked website.

Laundry Basket now has both Snippets and Silouettes for sale for the Blue Barn on their website, in the "New" section.
The Silouettes are the laser-cut shapes with fusible on the backs.
The Snippets are laser cut applique shapes with the 1/4 " seam allowance added, which would be nice for needle-turn applique.

I am leaning toward doing mine needle-turn. It is good to have choices.
Happy quilting, everyone!

Judy Austin
