Scrappy Patchwork Lap Quilt

54" x 67.5" 

This fabric line is from Moda and is called Sunday Supper. I love the silverware prints in this line. There are also some prints with words on them which I don't get to use very often. Word prints are so awesome! This is one of my go to patterns because of the pieced border. It's a nice upgrade to a plain patchwork quilt, and an upgrade to a plain border. Win, win!

I found a nice backing fabric at the store the other day. Most times I forget to plan this out in advance and it can be hard to find something that matches some of the colors in the moda lines. This navy blue is not like any of the navy blues in my stash.  I got smart this time and ordered binding fabric from the Sunday Supper line before it runs out.

You can find Scrappy Patchwork pattern here. It comes in two sizes - baby and lap.  It's a great pattern in you are a beginner or you want a patchwork quilt with a modern feel.

Scrappy Patchwork Baby Quilt

 36 x 40.5

Here is a simple baby quilt is some nice colors. I love the aqua with the coral and tans especially for a baby quilt. There are even little foxes and birds on the fabric to make it oh so cute!

I found just enough of this aqua fabric in my stash for the back of this quilt. Although, I'm glad I was forced to add the leftover from the front because it just adds so much. I've been getting quite lazy lately and not piecing my backs. Let me just say that it's a quick way to build up the scrap pile, but not in a good way!

The pattern is called Scrappy Patchwork and comes in 2 sizes - baby and lap.

Hydrangea Quilt

52" x 68"

This quilt is full of hydrangea prints from Benartex. I had a customer send me the blue center fabric with the butterflies and a backing fabric. We worked out the rest of the fabric placement before I placed the order for the rest of the prints.   

I had enough of the main print to fussy cut the hydrangeas. I didn't fussy cut the dark centers though, the hydrangeas on that print were too big. The green tonal print softly outlines the main print blocks. And the dark inner border ties in with the small dark centers of the other block.  Turned out wonderfully! 

I think the missing comment issue has been fixed on my blog. So hopefully if you leave a comment, I'll be responding with an email again!  It was a pretty easy fix. Just read this post here from Just Let Me Quilt.

The Second Sew Along with Roseanne

Roseanne at Home Sewn By Us is hosting another Sew Along. 

It starts July 1 and I'm ready to get started!

 I will be making option #1 which is Up From Here.

This free tutorial can be found on Sew Mama Sew.

I chose these citrus colors for my quilt.  I decided to make my blocks smaller at 12" instead of 24". I will be doing a 5 x 6 block setting and using all scraps to make my quilt. I am going to try to use the larger pieces on the left for my back. Hopefully I can come up with a creative way to piece it all together. 

If you're not into this pattern, there are a couple more choices for the sew along. I hope you'll pick one of them and join us. This is a no pressure, no timeline sew along. If you don't know Roseanne, now is a prefect time to meet her. I would say there isn't a quilter she doesn't like. Pop on over and say hello!
