AVFKW X Making Magazine - The Sketch Quilt Bundle

The Sketch Quilt sewing pattern is one of many projects featured in Making 6 / Black and White. In the magazine, Kristine, the designer of this project and co-owner of Verb writes:

When I approached this project, I wanted to use a sewing technique which would lend itself to the act of sketching. This is not so much an exercise in matching corners and seams as one might find in more traditional quilting, instead, it is about playing with design, balance, and the scale of the chocolate brown woven fabric versus the plain white fabric. I landed upon the free-form technique of strip piecing (sometimes referred to as strip quilting). I went for a more minimalist approach, but your sketch and quilt may be denser, with more strips, creating more lines. The technique of strip piecing is easily adaptable.

We have several kit options available! Kristine's sample in the magazine was made with the Khadi - Black kit. The organic cotton cloth in this kit is hand-spun, hand-woven, and naturally dyed in India. There are also khadi kits available in Acacia (brown) and Indigo (blue)*.

*Due to variations, fabrics may not be an exact match to the photo but will be in the color family as described.

When working with fabric, thread, and fiber dyed with indigo, it is common and natural for the blue dye to rub off on one’s hands while sewing. This is called crocking. Although the goods have been washed, it takes pressured contact to release the extra indigo dye. Your handwork is part of the indigo dyeing process. The blue dye can be removed with hot water and soap. From working closely with indigo dyed materials through the making process, typically, the excess dye has been removed, and the crocking will cease.
