The V&A has opened a new exhibition on quilts that I have yet to see. Browsing through their website I came across the Patchwork Pattern Maker, an online tool which allows visitors to select photos from the V&A collection, or upload their own, and transform the pics into a quilt pattern. This is such a simple and lovely add-on for the show, allowing people to take their interest in the subject matter further by making a quilt of their own. While I’ve only tackled the most basic Denyse Schmidt projects, with the help of the pattern maker I’m ready to take things to the next level.
