Playful Posies Class Finishes!!

Sorry it's been a little quiet around here, we are for sure in all Summer mode.   Lots of family and food and it is oh so great!!  But I wanted to pop on and share a little Playful Posies Inspiration.  In case you missed it . .  . Playful Posies is the July $5 Pattern of the Month  And wouldn't you know it, I taught this class back in January at the Cedar Quilt Retreat and just had 2 class members share the quilt top finishes with me!!!  So now, I can share them with you :)  

This first Playful Posies Quilt is by Jeannine Hart.  She made the twin size quilt and used gorgeous Kaffe Fassett prints to make her flowers.  And isn't it just so stunning!!!  I love how happy and bright these posies are, it really was an awesome layer cake of prints to use and made such a fabulous finish!!  Way to go Jeannine!!!   And yes, now I totally want to make one in Kaffe  as well ;)  

And the second Playful Posies finish is from LuAnn Brown.  She also mad ethe twin size.  And as you can see on this twin size bed, it has the perfect amount of drape to it ;)   I am not sure what layer cake LuAnn used (If you know, drop me a line in the comments and I will update this :)   but I just love the soft tones and gorgeous colors!!   Isn't it fun to see the same design looking totally different thanks to the fabrics.  It's one of my favorite things about teaching!!  

So ya, soft of bright, this quilt is going to look amazing in whatever Layer Cake you choose!!  And just as a reminder . . . You don't have to use a white background.  Here is the picnic size Playful Posies Barbara made with Poppie Cotton  with a gorgeous Navy background.  Dark colors in background can really make your colors just pop!!  

So ya, if you haven't picked up your Playful Posies for just $5.00 all this month, now is the time to grab it, grab a Layer Cake, and get sewing some Posie blocks!!  You are just going to love making this pattern ;)  

Thanks for popping in today :)   I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!
