Wild in Bloom Quilt!!

 It's a new year and wouldn't you know it . . . the first quilt I share in 2024 is from 2023 :)  I was so excited when Stephanie, from Fancy That Design House, asked if I could make a sampler of her Wild in Bloom quilt ;)   Stephanie designed this gorgeous Wild in Bloom Quilt using her just released, Woodland & Wildflowers collection.   Isn't is just so pretty!!!  

I just love all of Fancy That Design House fabrics and to get to play with them early, double bonus :)  In fact, I have a few other secret shares for later this year :)  This quilt was so much fun to piece.   I love piecing blocks a la chain piecing, but sometimes it is just a blast to break and piece each part separately and then watch it all come together ;)   And I just love the variation on a piano key border Stephanie designed, so cute!!! 


And aren't these Woodland & Wildflowers prints just so pretty!!!   The colors are just so rich and the prints are simply gorgeous ;)   And I  didn't use the panel for this line in this quilt, but you should totally check it out, just so stunning!!! The quilt is Fat Eighth Friendly plus a few extra yardage cuts ;)  It finishes at 48" x 66" so it makes a great lap size to cuddle in!!  

And when it came time to quilt it, I wanted to keep it elegant so I went with all over swirls and echoed paisleys.   I just love how it gives so much flow and texture to the design.  And you all know my favorite 402 Pearl was perfect for this quilt ;)


And  that is my Wild In Bloom Quilt ;)  I just love this one.    And I had to share these 2 photo's that Stephanie shared of the quilt.   Aren't they just so pretty.   I want to go visit Stephanie's backyard  when it is all in bloom, just lovely!!  



And that is it for today, a 2023 finish in 2024 . . . so fun :)

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