Simply by Design in Calico Cowgirls!!!

Today I am super excited to be sharing this beautiful new Simply By Design quilt finish with you featuring the oh so fun Calico Cowgirl Collection by Lori Woods for Poppie Cotton!! And I am so excited to share this quilt!!!  With the new release of my Simply By Design  Quilt Pattern  I just couldn't wait to make a new version of the quilt using Fat Quarters instead of scraps and a dark background!!!   And these Calico Cowgirl fabrics  were the perfect match for the design.     Didn't it just come together so great!!!  

This Simply by Design quilt is such a fun one to make!!!   I used Fat quarters and divided these beauitful prints into 8 wonderful color groupings.   The key to this quilt is all about the color groupings and this line worked perfect for it.   And then I paired all of these bright happy colors with  Country Confetti Rodeo Arena Brown and they just sing!!  These just make me smile!!  

Simply by Design it truly is a great beginner quilt!!   It goes together quick and is super fun to make.   Again, it is all about playing with color groupings :)    It is made with simply block piecing, and then rotating the blocks into this fun design with sashing to break things up.  

 
And this particular quilt is on it's way to Poppie Cotton to hang at Quilt Market.  Poppie Cotton is hosting the Rest and Relaxation area of Market and is lining it with so many happy quilts.  I am honored to have mine hanging there  ;)  

Barbara did the piecing and qulting on this one again :)   Aren't her echoed feather groupings just so cute in the quilting.  They really pull out the fun and whimsy of the design.  Just so charming!!! 

 And just in case you missed it when I shared this new pattern last week, Simply By Design has multiple size options, so you can make whatever size you like. This is the twin size, but you can make it from a baby size all the way to a queen size ;)  And it really is great for Beginners to Experts alike, it is just a super fun quilt to make!!

And that is my Simply by Design Quilt! I hope you have enjoyed this post and consider making your own Simply by Design Quilt!!! And if you do, I would love to see it!
