Judy and Brad Niemeyer designed the layout, instructions, and foundation papers for the Queen size Lily Pond. A collection of batiks designed by Judy and Judel Niemeyer with Timeless Treasures called Peacock were selected to make the sample shown on the cover. A sewing technique called foundation paper piecing is used to assemble the units required to make this quilt. Traditional piecing and curved piecing techniques are used to join the units after the foundation piecing is completed.
The color layout for the quilt on the cover was designed in Quiltster, a subscription-based fabric auditioning application that Quiltworx has been working with a design software development firm to bring to the Quilting Industry for the last two years. With Quiltster, you can load fabrics into spaces on a quilt design to see what it looks like before completed. Quiltster is set to launch in 2016 to a consumer audience!
This pattern publication also marks the launch of a series of patterns using new units designed to fit the original Fire Island Hosta layout. When all of these patterns are published, a customer can use Quiltster to mix and match units from each design to create their own unique quilt pattern! As a Quiltster subscriber, you will not only be able to try out fabrics, but mix and match the blocks between the Hosta layouts to create your own unique design! We are excited for the Quiltster launch and the upcoming release of many other elements to use with the Hosta Layouts.
