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.

Irene, the applique' page in Month 10 says the shapes are reversed but since they are almost symmetrical, that hardly shows. Shape H is the only one that appears to be reversed. As for the pattern pages, sometimes your printer settings allow you to print "reverse mirror image". Mine did not. Whether or not the patterns need to be reversed depends on the applique' method you are using. You can always print on very lightweight paper or Vellum/tracing paper--then you can see through the paper and use it whichever side you want. If you print on regular paper and need to transfer the design in reverse, use a lightbox or hold it up to a window and trace the design on the back of the paper, giving you a reverse design.

Since these shapes are so symmetrical, I wouldn't think you would really need to go to that much effort.

I hope this helps.

Hi Barbara,

Do you have suggestions for reversing the applique printout?

Thank you.
