Road Fifteen Sixteen Patch

Head over to the Moda Bake shop to check out my new tutorial using Sweetwater's Road 15 fabric.  I LOVE this line, there are so many great prints.

This quilt is destined for my son's big boy bed and I think he might like it :)

    Beautiful! Such a nice twist on the sixteen patch, and the setting gives the blocks so much impact.

    I don't have any of this line yet, so I love seeing your quilt @ Moda Bake Shop! It's fantastic, Erica, and your little guy is sure a sweetie!

    I was on the fence about this line, when usually I rush to buy a Sweetwater line, but your quilt has made me decide. Yes, I want it! Great quilt, simple and effective. I think your gorgeous little boy will adore it. My elder son is 6 and has. Reunion quilt on his bed and my youngest son is 4 and has a Lucy's Crab Shack quilt on his bed! My daughter 9 has a Sunkissed quilt.

    Very nice 16-patch variation. I keep seeing great St. Louis 16-patches but I really like your sashed-on-point version! Maybe I'll finally 16-patch along with you cool kids. :)

What Shade Are You? Blog Hop & Giveaway

A few weeks ago RJR Fabrics contacted me to see if I was interested with working on a project using their solids.  I checked out their colors and was pretty smitten so I said yes. And they exceeded my expectations.  I mixed them in with some of the prints from Rashida Coleman Hale's new Mochi collection .  Since Cotton + Steel is actually a division of RJR fabrics, the RJR solids coordinate perfectly with the collections. The RJR Cotton Supreme Solids have a great selection of pinks (I think good pinks are the hardest to find) and my favorite is actually the neutral-y brown Driftwood color that I used for the binding.  It might not be cool to love brown, but I do, and Driftwood (color 297) will be filling a void in my stash.   The quilt looks more complicated than it actually is: each of the diamonds is made up of 2 triangles (so there are no y-seams) and I cut the fabric with my  favorite triangle ruler .      I didn't want the quiltin...
