Wool Welcome Color Option

Fabrics: Amberley collection by Brenda Riddle for Moda Fabrics

Quilt tester Monique Jacobs used light-color tiny floral prints to re-create the pincushion with a springtime vibe. Instead of hand-stitching the appliqué pieces to the pincushion, she used fusible web and machine-stitched them in place.

Total Eclipse Color Option

Fabrics: Mon Beau Jardin collection by Nadra Ridgeway for Riley Blake

After piecing a smaller version of Total Eclipse, quilt tester Colleen Tauke discovered three tips for successful foundation piecing.

1. Use a tiny stitch length (1.5-2) and a larger needle so the foundation material tears away easily from the assembled block.

2. Set up a pressing surface close to your sewing machine to increase productivity.

3. Change your needle every 6–8 hours of sewing because sewing through multiple layers quickly dulls a needle.

Wide Open Spaces Color Option

Fabrics: Sun Print 2018 collection by Alison Glass for Andover Fabrics

Quilt tester Sharon McConnell used blender prints in saturated colors to make her version of Wide Open Spaces. A gray background allows colors to shine. "Simple geometric shapes can be quite graphic, especially when they are super-sized," Sharon says.

Shared History Color Option

Fabrics: Temperance Blues c1850 collection by Evonne Cook of Clothesline Quilts for Washington Street Studio of P&B Textiles

Quilt tester Diane Tomlinson used a monochromatic selection of blue 19th-century reproduction prints and stripes to make low-contrast blocks. Her version of Shared History features light prints in the sashing and border to visually set off the Pinwheel blocks. "It was a challenge using a one-color palette," Diane says, "but I like a good challenge!"
