Cool blue and fresh white is one of the most popular home decor color combinations – witness the popularity of both new and antique blue and white china and pottery. Indigo Splash is the newest collection by Dina June for Wilmington Prints featuring mandalas, paisleys, and ikat inspired patterns. This fabulous quilt is 95-1/2″ square – a generous queen that can easily be enlarged to a king size. There are 6 different 15″ blocks including modified “Storm at Sea” and “Star of North Carolina” blocks which require included templates. A beautiful repeating stripe borders the quilt and the smaller stripe (that looks a bit like ikat) is also used in piecing Block #1. Since there are blocks with templates and slightly challenging construction, this project may be best-suited for quilters with moderate skills or for very confident beginners who are ready to build skills. THIS LISTING IS FOR THE KIT VERSION AND NOT THE BLOCK OF THE MONTH!
