Beginner's Guide To Quilting - UK (2020-04)

“Happy Crossings is a quilt made to

balance Pat Bravo’s twee Rapture

collection with touches of

modernity,” says Lorena Barriento

of Art Gallery Fabrics, who

commissioned this great design to

showcase Pat’s pretty pastel prints.

“To achieve this, we incorporated our

Pure and Squared Elements – blocky,

simple details that enhance the

beauty of the main printed fabrics.

We like to think Happy Crossings

belongs in a luminous room for a

creative dreamer and maker. And

perhaps someone who alternates

between cupcakes and macaroons as

their favoured dessert!”

fine finish to your quilt.
