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 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 ;)
Absolutely beautiful and so cheerful. I love the quilting too!

I would love to make something like this. It is kind of artsy.
