Description

Passacaglia 3 cm is the original size (1.18 inch). La Passacaglia with Mr. Penrose is the exquisite quilt on the cover of Millefiori Quilts 1 by Willyne Hammerstein, published by Quiltmania.

Quilters asked for the design to be made Inklingo-able, so they would have the option to sew with a running stitch instead of English Paper Piecing. Quiltmania graciously agreed. You can print on fabric instead of using acrylic templates.

Detail of Passacaglia Quilt by Willyne Hammerstein

Detailed diagrams for the rosettes and assembling the quilt top are in Willyne’s book. There is an added layer of complexity because the rosettes interlock and overlap each other.

However, you can get a faster finish with Inklingo than with traditional methods even with fussy cutting.

There are two great methods of fussy cutting with Inklingo. You can use traditional Swiss cheese fussy cutting with two-part freezer paper templates (printed with Inklingo). If you have the right fabric, Inklingo No Waste Fussy Cutting is a fabulous choice. Print identical sheets of fabric for No Waste Fussy Cutting, similar to Stack n Whack™.

The brilliance of Willyne’s design is in the way she used the shapes to create interlocking designs. She teaches hand piecing with a running stitch.

It is much easier to print the shapes on fabric with Inklingo and sew with a running stitch. On the other hand, there are 8 Good Ways to Use Inklingo for EPP if that is the method you prefer.

Learn to Hand Piece

GOOD NEWS  The quilts in the Millefiori books are not just for quilters who like English Paper Piecing.

Willyne hand pieces with a running stitch—and NOT English Paper Piecing, as I originally thought. MessyJesse took a class from Willyne Hammerstein and shares photos on her blog.

“I have been brainwashed recently into thinking I needed to EPP everything (hurts my hands) or buy expensive templates! I really enjoyed your post on why they aren’t necessary!” Elaine in England

Other "Passacaglia" Designs

Passacaglia is a Baroque music form from the 1600s which was destined to cause confusion for quilters in the twenty-first century.

1. Some quilters mistakenly think La Passacaglia is called Millefiori because it is on the cover of the Millefiori Quilts book.

2. There is also a Millefiore Quilt Along based on a book by Katja Marek, which uses different shapes.

3. Lucy Boston made a quilt called Passacaglia, which is in The Patchworks of Lucy Boston book.

4. There is a free Inklingo pattern by Tilde in Denmark called Passacaglia, which was published in 2009.
