More About This Issue
Even though our tastes run towards the modern end here at Make Modern magazine, it doesn’t mean we can’t find inspiration in quilts from times past. In fact, one of our Editor’s obsessions is picking up second-hand vintage quilt books and finding inspiration in their musty pages. Whether you’re looking at popular colourways from decades past of thinking of how you can set an old block in a fresh layout, we love vintage inspired modern quilts. We’ve got an extensive article on finding inspiration from these old beauties. Speaking of inspiration, if you’ve lost you sewing motivation, we’ve got plenty of tips from our readers for how to get that sewjo back!
This issue, we MAKE stars, circles, flying geese and vintage inspired modern quilts. We MEET quilting superstar and fabric designer Denyse Schmidt and modern quilter Wendy Welsh. We MOTIVATE you to find your sewing motivation again if it’s gone missing, and to look to old books for new inspiration. We bring you a gallery of stunning 100 Days 100 Blocks quilts, and teach you to make 8 half-square triangles (HSTs) at a time. We also answer the question ‘Do you need a Blog?’ for your quilt business and ask our makers ’What do you wish you knew ages ago that makes quilting life easier?’.
