I have been participating in Quilt Design a Day (QDAD). This is a facebook group, in which participants create a quilt design based on a provided color palette (usually Design Seeds or Photos from members of the group).
- You can join the group via Facebook.
- I use Quilt Canvas for designing, others are using EQ7 or Inkscape
Please Note: If you would like to make or use one of my designs, please email me (ml_wilkie(at)hotmail(dot)com) or leave a comment below. I am happy to talk with you on options and provide the relevant measurements etc. or have you test out a pattern. Also, if you use one of my designs, please use the following text to credit me the design: “Designed by Michelle Wilkie @ Factotum of Arts”.

Hi Michelle,
I love your work! And the design detail and thought that goes into your designs. Will you be writing a book? I hope so, if not, I want to encourage you to do so. I saw a quilt that was from the fog colors, dark green amd greys. Do you have a pattern for that one?
Thank you,
Kim Williams
