Uh oh, a spool is unraveling! Refresh and try again.
Description:

Rising Splendor places four kimono blocks inside a border of curved fan blocks. Paper piecing forms the kimono bodices and obi sash sections, while the sleeves and skirts are joined with conventional seams. Sashing separates the central blocks, and several fabric borders frame the fan arrangement. Marsha Evans Moore designed this intermediate project with Phoenix batiks; the quilt finishes with quilting and binding and measures 47-1/2 by 52 inches.
