Liberty Tumblers Paper Piecing Set
LIBERTY TUMBLERS, by Brigitte Giblin, is a variation of the 3D Tumbling Blocks or Baby Blocks pattern with the addition of a background fabric to separate the blocks so that they appear to ‘float’. This layout gives a light and airy feel to a traditional block. This is an English Paper Pieced or hand pieced project. Instructions are given for both methods. Papers and templates are available for both methods. Brigitte Giblin is an Australian quilt designer and teacher who has been making quilts in the naive, antique and traditional styles for over thirty years. Considered one of Australia’s finest designers and teachers, Giblin brings a unique sense of style and an unconventional approach to quilt making. Her well considered designs are inspired by old quilts and reflect her love of fabrics, colour and geometric shapes, as she deftly applies old techniques to current fabrics. Recreating and capturing the look and feel of antique quilts, her quirky style continues to evolve in response to current fabric trends. Born in the historical walled village of Aigues-Mortes, France and raised in Australia, Brigitte’s lifetime passion for fabric and design was ignited when, at age 18, she went to live in France for several years. The process of discovering old fabrics and quilts and exploring the flea markets quickly became a way of life. Like many quiltmakers, what began as a hobby in the mid-1970s has evolved into a lifetime passion for Brigitte. Starting out learning traditional patchwork techniques, it did not take long for her to graduate to the faster machine pieced quilts. She opened her own shop and quickly learned more about combining fabrics, then focused on designing and teaching patchwork.
