Happy Friday!! Welcome to my stop on the First Blush Blog Hop!
I was excited to be invited to be a part of the blog hop and fell in love with my first glimpse of First Blush! I received my bundle of fabric in the middle of summer and it was perfect timing. This adorable fabric just says summer and vintage!! The prints are so fun and bias GINGHAM!!!!! The colors just make my heart sing!
I have always wanted to make the Vintage quilt from the book Simply Retro by Camille Roskelley, but decided that a baby quilt would be perfect. I did a little quilty math to change the size of the block and set out to work. The blocks are so fun to make and I love the way they show off the cute prints. I used my go to wavy quilting and scrappy binding and "voila" instant vintage baby quilt!!!
First Blush makes a great addition to any fabric stash. It has the scrappy happy look that I love. I cannot wait to make more cute things with this fabric.
I hope my little quilt inspires you to make something adorable with First Blush!

I put this one together quickly and I loved how it turned out.

ReplyDeleteHi Debbie! I love the quilt you created! Thanks for sharing with us and I will be stopping by often to check out your blog. If I had to choose a quilt block that I love best, it would be the "Farmer's Daughter" block. I made a quilt a few year ago with this block included in it, with applique and it has always been my favourite. Keep on Stitching:)
ReplyDeleteI love how pretty and fresh your quilt is. Choosing a favourite quilt pattern is hard but equilateral triangles joined into stars is one.
ReplyDeleteannamariehlustik@googlemail.com
I'm new to quilting but I like zig zag quilts! I've seen some on Pinterest and they are lovely
ReplyDeleteI'm browsing your blog and looking at all tutorials. Thanks for the blog tour!
ReplyDeleteYes, this quilt pattern is also on my 'to do' list - maybe with some math to make it smaller like you did, for a baby quilt. I have many, many favorite patterns - so it is hard to chose 'the most' favorite; but Lori Holt's Row Along Quilt pattern, was one of my first and it is still a special one!!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful. Of course, it's hard to choose a favorite, but I really love churn dash quilts. This collection would make a beautiful quilt. Thank you for offering the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI just adore this fabric - Cute, colorful and cheerful. I'm hoping I win, because a quilt made with this fabric is the perfect antidote for the long, brutal Minnesota winters.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet quilt -- love your pattern! I am still making simple beginner things; my current attempt is a 'jack and jill' but I'm hoping to some day 'graduate' to cooler things. :)

ReplyDeleteI have to say I am torn between the log cabin block and the nine-patch. Both are so incredibly versatile -- they can be formal and fussy or casual and playful. And there are so many variations for both; I don't think one would ever run out of a new option to try!
ReplyDeleteAre you sure your darling quilt isn't for that sweet little pup? You picked a wonderful pattern for this beautiful line. My favorite block is the log cabin as there are so many variations you can do with it. Thank you for the chance to win.
