Earlier this year I participated in a Tula Pink Charm Square swap and used them to make a Color Dive quilt using the pattern by Anna Maria Horner.
I needed quite a few charm squares so used all of those from the swap and cut the rest from my stash as well as slightly larger squares to make the HST.
There are quite a few HST's needed for the pattern - it was my first time using a Bloc-loc ruler to trim the HST and it made it so much quicker!
There are prints from many of Tula Pinks fabric ranges as well as some of the new All Stars, Tent Stripes, Pom Pom dots, and solids.
This quilt finished at 63 x 72" and it was quilt long arm quilted at my LQS, Rainbow Patchwork.
The blue backing is the same as I used for the "Love Cats" quilt that I made a few months ago and the quilt is bound in an aqua solid.
A huge thank you to Amy for hosting such a fun quilt festival - it is always so inspiring to see all of the quilts liked up!
Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you enjoy visiting many of the other blogs during this week!

DeleteHi Kirsten! What a lovely quilt! I love the whole nod to Tula Pink fabrics - what a fun idea for a swap. This reminds me slightly of Postcard from Sweden - at least all of the HSTs. I just picked up a Bloc Loc ruler but haven't used it yet. I look forward to giving it a try! ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteThank you Roseanne - the Postcard from Sweden quilt is on my to-do list, and I think you will really enjoy using the bloc-loc!
