I love Simply Color. I love Camille's new pattern Lucky. With their powers combined, there's some pretty happening here.
This one is my favourite block.
But I guess you'd like to see the entire quilt top, yeah? Okay!
I picked out the diamond pattern prints from a Simply Color Layer cake and paired it with a white solid. Mainly because that's the solid I had the most of and I thought it'd look pretty. If you haven't noticed yet, I'm all about pretty in my quilting.
The cornerstones in the sashing are also from Simply Color - just went with the flowery prints for this.
I probably spent the most time of this quilt top trying to decide which way I should lay out the squares. it was a tough decision between random scrappy and matchy matchy.
With a bit of consultation with the Wombats (seriously, where would I be without their second, third, fourth etc opinions?!), matchy matchy won.
I decided to just go with the four blocks to make this into a baby quilt. It's just over 40"square. As with all Camille's patterns, it was easy to put together and gives a great result. I just might have to go and get Fireworks next. I love that one too.
Perhaps though, I should actually get this (and Bloom Bloom Pow) made into a finished quilt before I go off on other projects. Perhaps.
This will be perfect as a baby quilt ; )
ReplyDeleteWhen did you find time to whip this up?? It's sensational. Very, very pretty!

Amazing!! Definitely a pretty one; can't believe how quickly you whipped it up and all of your points are perfect!! Makes for a sweet baby quilt!
ReplyDeleteWhy do a silly thing like that and actually finish a project?
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous. Can't wait to see what else you've got planned. My mom asked for a KING sized fireworks quilt. Um, that's like 42 blocks. I'd much rather make a baby quilt!
I need to download your brain. I didn't even know Camille had such a fantastic website with so many patterns! Way to get me side tracked, Kristy!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my fav fabric ranges. It looks fabulous in this design.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the green/grey star!
