And I know we all love size options!!!! The amount of blocks is the same for each quilt but the size of the block varies. The pattern includes instructions for making 4 different size blocks ranging from 6 1/2" square to 15 1/2" square. This allows you to make a Baby, Lap, Twin, or Queen size quilt.
This cover quilt is the Twin size and the fabrics are Simply Color by V and Co. for Moda. I have to admit, I have had this idea in my head for quite some time and was just waiting for the perfect fabrics to come along for it. I instantly fell in love with Vanessa's Simply Color and knew it was perfect for this design.
A little detail. I used a pebbling free motion stitch on all of the colored blocks in matching colored thread and organic "straight" lines in the sashing. I love the way the pebbles pop!!
So, do you want to make one for yourself?? My gal Leah from Burgundy Buttons can hook you up with a Simply by Design Quilt Kit featuring the same Simply Color prints that I used!!!! The kit is for the Twin size. The kit also includes the pattern for free and the fabric itself is at a discount. So pop on over and grab a kit for yourself and get quilting your own Simply by Design quilt.
So this is my last new pattern for a little while. Thank you to all of you fabulous readers and your continued support of Happy Quilting!! Let's keep on quilting together :)

ReplyDeleteLove it! I was wondering what you were going to do with those fabulous block you kept posting! I like how you just made the blocks bigger of the bigger quilts, genius!
ReplyDeleteI love how you combined the pebble quilting and wavy quilting! What type of machine do you use?

ReplyDeletemy granddaughter in law wants a quilt and loves the "simply by design" but she wants other colors that she likes. Can this at all be a 10" layer cake or do I need yardage?
ReplyDeleteYou can for sure use a Layer Cake. You might have to add a bit to it, depending on what size quilt you decide to make. But yes, a Layer Cake is a great place to start :)
DeleteOh. Good. Thank you for such a rapid reply. I’ll buy extra yardage normally but she found layer cake she likes.
ReplyDeleteI’ll give it a try. Again, thanks
