Another project






This project was for a book assignment in one of my design classes. And if there is ever an opportunity, I will try and work quilting into at least one project per class. So I made a quilted book. The book follows the pieces of a log cabin pattern falling into place over the course of 16 panels. Each panel is 16 cm square and there are a total of 16 pieces, for a nice play on numbers. The log cabin pieces are made of felt and were quilted onto the pages. The pages were made using the same technique as I did for my previous book, were you make a pouch and then flip it right side out and quilt around the edges.

Then out of felt, I made a quick cover for the book to tie the whole thing together. The cover took the least amount of time out of the project but really finished the piece nicely. As you can see here,




It was a nice overall look and a good challenge, I never made a quilted book before.
