Description:
Fruit Mandala frames a large fabric square whose printed design supplies the central checkerboard of blooms. Fussy-cut floral strips form a pieced border, with on-point squares placed at its corners and narrow borders separating the sections. The advanced-beginner quilt finishes at 53 inches square and features Fruitopia by Helen Godden with Chromatics fabrics. Its construction concentrates on centering the printed motifs and joining the borders around the unpieced center square.
