One of Everything

One of Everything is the phrase that came to mind around 5 am as I was dream thinking about the first prompt – One – for Persimon Dream’s 2023 Project Quilting Challenge. I had an idea of how to put that into fabric, but would it work? 

I did some quick tracing and fusing, and soon I was ready to put the quilt together.

Rather than fuse the one to the background fabric, I spray basted it so that I didn’t have as much fusible to sew through. I just wanted to see if that would work. Once the quilt sandwich was ready, I just did some straight line quilting, and added the binding.

One of Everything is a bit like those wordplay puzzles. I just wanted something simple and graphic, and I think I accomplished that. It was fun to see if I could make my idea come to life.  The finished size is 10″ x 10.5″. 

This is my second year of participating in Project Quilting. If you’re interested, here are the links to my last Project Quilting posts from two years ago:

  1. I saw that first prompt, but couldn’t think of a thing to do for it, so good for you! Did you like using the spray basting instead of more fusible? That sounded like a good idea to me. There are multiple places where I could go and just say, “One of everything!” The quilt shop is probably one of them! I have participated in Project Quilting, but not for a couple years.

  2. Hi Wendy! How clever you are! What a great name for this project and I really love your fabric choices. Is that good ‘ole Pickle? {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne
