Reel Time Tablerunner

Welcome to the third day of the Reel Time blog tour.  This collection is from Zen Chic and it is wonderfully reminiscent of Comma, which is my favorite Zen Chic line.  These are a few of my favorite prints.
Reel Time Fabrics
I decided to make a table runner using a little of most of the prints in the collection.  The truth is that I couldn't pick favorites and wanted to use everything.

The colors of the prints really inspired me; I love how that within each color, the prints are similarly colored, but there is enough of a difference in value to give the finished project some dimension.  

I am looking forward to picking up yardage, especially of the low volume prints.

    I love it! Did you use a pattern or tutorial for the runner? It looks like the beginning of a log cabin maybe? 2 squares and a rectangle for the block? You planned your color placement very well. It looks great!

    Erica, it's a pleasure to meet you.
    I'm inspired by the various values too,
    I've always been a orange girl, but that Chartreuse is really catching my eye. Thank you for sharing your table runner, it's cool:)

    Gorgeous work! I would find it hard to choose favourites too. I loved Comma and this range looks right up my alley too!

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...
