Fussy Cut Sampler QAL - Blocks 45-48

This is the final chapter in the Fussy Cut Sampler. Thanks for sticking with me as I have shared my blocks each week, it has been so much fun.  Now the problem is going to be choosing a sashing fabric, I have no idea what I'm going to do!
The Fussy Cut Sampler Block # 45
Block 45.  I have a confession to make: this block is supposed to use freezer paper and I didn't use it.  
The Fussy Cut Sampler Block # 46
Block 46. This was another hard one for me, I am not a fan of matching up repeats because I am not very good at it.  
The Fussy Cut Sampler Block # 47
Block 47.  I didn't really follow the rules on this block either, I got carried away with picking fabrics and forgot that each of the shapes was supposed to contain a motif.  
The Fussy Cut Sampler Block # 48
Block 48. This is the final block and creates a custom label. I didn't want to use my name and I didn't have many text fabric options in my, so I decided to go with a short phrase that I knew I would enjoy seeing on my quilt and happy fabrics to go along with it.

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...
