Briar Patch

Almost a year ago I made this quilt for a magazine so I was excited when yesterday I finally received a copy of the magazine in the mail.
Briar Patch Quilt
The quilt was made with Heather Ross' Briar Rose collection and I just love how sweet the colors are, especially the purple floral print which I used for the binding.

The quilt is included in the Summer 2014 of Easy Quilts which should be available in stores soon.

    OMG! I had something so similar to this sketched out a few months ago (except it was going to be a table runner) but never got around to making it. Yours is gorgeous! Really great way to show off the fabrics!

    I just found your site and am totally in love. I've searched around a bit on your site, but did not see if you've ever answered the question of whether you do your quilting at home or if you send it away. I'd love to start quilting at home, but am intimidated by the quilting part of quilting!

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...
