Top Four Favorite Edyta Sitar Laundry Basket Quilts
Edyta Sitar’s Laundry Basket Quilts are beloved by quilters, and with good reason! She travels the world sharing her experiences and connecting with quilters through inspiring stories about the quilts she makes. Years ago, I had the privilege of attending a Quilt Market schoolhouse presentation given by Edyta Sitar where she shared engaging stories of how she began quilting, and she was so memorably energetic, passionate, and a genuine delight. In her unique style, she artfully combines beautiful, traditional fabrics with batiks. It’s my pleasure to share our top four quilting patterns by Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts!
Bloomin’ Baskets
This beautiful and classic Bloomin’ Baskets table runner quilt will be welcome in your home year-round and is a joy to make. In Edyta Sitar’s unique approach, she finishes the piecing and quilting in this scrappy table runner first, and then adds the batik appliqué!
