Home Town Holiday Sampler Quilt Along - Week 1

It is Week 1 of the Home Town Holiday Sampler Quilt Along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop and I am just so excited!!   This week we are making 15 Twinkle Holiday Star Blocks!!! And aren't they just so cute!!    I love making star blocks, and tiny star blocks are the best!! 

And aren't those stars just so fun and adorable in these Sweetwater Christmas Prints!!  I am using Hometown Christmas Edition, Blizzard  and On Dasher  with a POParazzi Grey Background.  I just decided on that background last minute, and I just love it!!  I really think it is going to make all of the prints pop, especially the Low Volume letters :)

Mansfield Park Gate Quilt!!

 I was so excited when my good friends at Riley Blake Designs asked if I wanted to make this new Mansfield Park Gate Quilt Kit!!!  I mean, I love everything Jane Austen, so to have a Jane Austen at Home Fabric Collection,  how can you not get excited about that!!  This quilt was designed by Riley Blake and can I just say wow, talk about capturing the feel of the Regency period!!! 

And yes, those flowers and the gate are all traditionally pieced.   And yes, it probably took longer to cut out all the pieces then it did to sew it all together, but it was so worth it!!!  I love intricate piecing, and the gate and flowers were filled with lots of tiny pieces.  So fun!!   And then once you have the center done, those borders whip together in no time at all.   I just love all of the variations in the borders.   It really finishes off the center so perfectly.  

The quilt finishes at 60" x 60" so it is a perfect lap size quilt for a fan of Jane Austen :)   And I think it would also make a great wall decor.  It's just so pretty in all of its piecing goodness!  And the prints from this Jane Austen at Home Fabric Collection just make the quilt shine.  They are so pretty and soft and just perfect.  

And when it came time to quilt it, I decided to do some fun custom quilting.  I can't help but do arches when I have such perfectly pieced squares in a grid.   And then some ribbon candy in the sashing and of course, more arches in the triangles.   And for the center, I did a wavy cross grid.  I wanted to add lots of movement, almost like the feel of vines growing on the gate.   I think it was a perfect fit and added so much yummy texture!!   And I love that I can always count on So Fine 402 Pearl to blend perfectly in all of these light and dark colors, my go to for the win every time!! 

And this quilt is now going to be hanging at the Garden of Quilts.   I am so excited, I mean, a garden gate quilt should fit pretty good in 100 acres of gardens ;)    And if you love this quilts as much as I do, (and love some tiny piecing) you can make your own!!!  The Mansfield Park Gate Quilt Kits are now available, and they even come in a beautiful keepsake box!!   You are so going to love making this quilt!!! 

And that is it for my Mansfield Park Gate Quilt :)  Thank you so much for popping in and sharing it with me ;) 

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!
