Top stitch close to the edge of the roll all the way around being sure to catch the edges of the opening and sew them shut.Turn the roll right side out and tuck in the raw edges on the opening.With a 1/4″ seam, stitch all the way around the roll leaving an opening for turning on the bottom.Layer the rectangle from the print fabric over the pocket, right sides together and pin in place.Tuck the ends out of the way so that you do not catch them in the side seams. Make sure that you will catch the ribbon when you stitch the side seam. Pin the ribbon flat on the right side of the pocket about halfway down the side of the roll. Next, take your 22 inch ribbon and fold almost in half leaving one end about one inch longer than the other.Do a couple of back stitches at the top to secure the channels. Stitch down from the markings on the pocket to make the silverware channels.These will mark the stitch lines to make the channels for the silverware. From the left side of the pocket, measure 2 inches, 3 1/2″ and 5″ at the top and bottom of the pocket.


Pick up a copy of Fons & Porter’s Love of Quilting September/October issue for my pattern and more information. This is my favorite batting as the loft really shows off the quilting. The batting is Tuscany Cotton/Wool batting 80/20 generously provided by Hobbs. I used an allover edge to edge maple leaf design. Photo courtesy of Fons & Porter Love of Quilting Magazine, Copyright 2021 This quilt uses only four colors and you only make multiples of these two blocks for the design. It made it so easy to try different colors and draw up the blocks.

I designed this quilt with EQ8 Quilt Design Software. The blenders are perfect for creating the maple leaf pattern in the blocks. I used blender cottons called Canvas by Deborah Edwards for Northcott.

We've chosen a 'zinnia' design here to fill them.Featured in the September/ October 2021 issue of Fons and Porter’s Love of Quilting magazine, this issue is full of delightful fall, leafy projects… including my Autumn Aglow quilt. But as you'll see in the quilt pictured below, alternate blocks, when cut from solid looking fabrics, literally scream to be quilted with something fabulous. With just half the blocks to stitch you cut your piecing time in half. Quilts with solid, alternate blocks are faster to piece. There are several options for your alternate block. With odd numbers, the same block is always in all four outside corners. To maintain the symmetry or balance in the quilt design, use an odd number of blocks in both the rows and columns. This square is cut the same size as the unfinished pieced quilt block. Our first variation to the straight set quilt layout is to set every other block with a solid square of fabric instead of a pieced block. Matching seams is so much easier when the seam allowances nest.

If you choose to set your blocks edge-to-edge, take the time to make two blocks and then figure how to press the seams so that they'll nest or abut.
