Little Ruby Quilt Along with Fat Quarter Shop

I am super excited to be a part of the adorable summer Little Ruby Quilt Along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop!!!   This quilt was designed by Camille Roskelley for Fat Quarter Shop and is going to be a biweekly quilt along over June and July.   Isn't it just so cute!!!



Today the Quilt Along kicks off over at The Jolly Jabber!!!!   And the assignment for this week is collecting your fabric and cutting!!!   So what do you say . . . Want to join in the fun!!!  Let's Get started!!!!


This quilt has lots of Jelly Roll fun tied up in it.   When I first saw the design it reminded me of peppermint candies at Christmas time, so I figured it was fitting to make my Little Ruby Quilt Along a La Christmas :)   I choose Juniper Berry by Basic Grey and then added some great Grunge's (I love grunge!!!)  for the background ;)    This Quilt Along makes a bonus quilt as well, so I will be using the green grunge for one background and the red for the other.  So fun!!!!


Kimberly has made this wonderful video to walk you through everything you will need to get started.  She goes over all of the fabric requirements and tools you will need.   And then she goes over the cutting and shares lots of great tips on how to make your cutting go nice and smooth with the specialty rulers you get to use for this quilt!!   


And here is my cutting all done!!!  I am just loving those beautiful grunge prints and can not wait to see them with all of the wonderful Christmas prints from Juniper Berry!!!



And of course, Fat Quarter Shop has lined up a great team of bloggers to share their versions of the Little Ruby Quilt Along with you!!!  Guaranteed to be some amazing eye candy!!!   So be sure to pop on over and check out everyone's fabric choices and cutting ;)
