Piece and Quilt Sampler QAL - Month 5

 It's Month 5 of the  Piece and Quilt Sampler Quilt Along and I am just so excited to share my fifth set of blocks!!!  And there are so many fun blocks this month :)   Thanks to Fat Quarter Shop for hosting this awesome quilt along from the Celebrate with Quilts book!! And here is the month 5 finish!!

I am making my Piece and Quilt Sampler in a diagonal Rainbow of Ombre goodness. (see plan here)  I am just loving how the colors are split through some of the blocks.  It just adds so much variety to them.   So this month we started with four of the 9" Avenue blocks.  And truly, these took longer to cut out and lay out then they did to sew them together, but they are just so fun!! 

And then, it was on to the 9" Maple Leaf block.   Where this one was all teal, but still needed 2 "color groupings" I tried to use light and dark teal to make the block stand out more.  I just love the way it turned out ;)  .  

And last, but not least, we made a 9" and a 6" Texas Puzzle Block.   Again, I went for the light and dark prints to try and help make the block pop.   I think the pink one turned out so cute.   And the purple/blue one is just so fun and will look so cool in the quilt layout!!  I just can't wait to see this all come together!

So are you joining in the Piece and Quilt Fun???  It's going to be such a fun QAL!  Oh, and once you are done your blocks, Be sure to share your Piece and Quilt Sampler progress on social media with #PieceAndQuiltSamplerQAL :)  There is so much Piece and Quilt inspiration in that hashtag :)

And that's it for Month 5 - 4 of the 9" Avenue blocks, a 9" Maple Leaf block, and a 9" and 6" Texas Puzzle blocks in the Piece and Quilt Sampler Quilt Along!!!!      

Thanks for popping in today ;)  Have a Happy Quilting Day!! 

Floral Trails Quilt!!

I was so excited when Stephanie, from Fancy That Design House, asked if I could make a sample of her Floral Trails quilt ;)   Stephanie always has such beautiful fabrics and her quilt designs are always so fun!!!  I love her combination of designs in a quilt.  The Floral Trails quilt is made with Stephanie's  new Folk & Lore collection.   Isn't is just so gorgeous!!!  

I just love all of Fancy That Design House fabrics, the colors and prints are always just so happy!!!   And The Panels that she designs are just gorgeous!!!   I love that this quilt was designed for the panel in Folk and Lore and really shows off the prints in such a fun way.   I think it is just so cool that Stephanie continues the stripes through the stars, it really gives it a trail feel ;) 

And aren't these Folk and Lore prints just so pretty!!!   The colors are just so rich and the prints are simply gorgeous ;)   And like I said, the Panel is just stunning!!!  The quilt is Layer Cake Friendly  plus a few extra yardage cuts ;)  It finishes at 60" x 80" so it makes a great large lap size to cuddle in!!  

And when it came time to quilt it, I wanted to add to the trail effect, so I did wavy horizontal lines across the quilt.   I I just love how it gives so much flow and texture to the design and it was nice and quick as well, double bonus!!   And you all know my favorite 402 Pearl was perfect for this quilt ;)

And  that is my Floral Trails quilt ;)  I am so happy that I got to make this quilt!!   And it went together super fast, a great weekend project for sure!!!  

Thanks so much for popping in and sharing this finish with me today :)   

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

Vintage Sunburst QAL - Month 8

 It's Month 8 of the  Vintage Sunburst Quilt Along hosted by Fat Quarter Shop and I can not say how happy I am that I switched to chain piecing - paper piecing !!      It is just so much more productive for me ;)  So here is this month's share for the Vintage Sunburst Quilt  

I finished up all of the "paper part" of the paper piecing this month with  the 12" Paper Piecing Pads blocks parts.   I am using the cool tones of the Blossom Basics for these larger blocks with the Warm Tones in the corners to make the secondary diamonds when the blocks are sewn together.   

 Next month my plan is to  sew these units into blocks .   And then in October I will be making the quilt top and November quilting it!!  And it will be all finished in time for Christmas ;)  The free pattern for this Quilt Along can be found right here ;) 

  And now that I have cut all of the "scraps" from the paper piecing, I am getting back to my  leaders and enders .   This is all next to my sewing machine and each time I finish some stitching I add another 2 of these to be stitched.   It is going to grow in no time at all, which is good because I am thinking about piecing this  into the backing of the quilt :)  

So do you want to work on your paper piecing skills as well??  Pop over the the Vintage Sunburst Quilt Along page to get all of the details and join me in some paper piecing fun :)
