Alayna's Euclid Court Quilt

Alayna's Euclid Court Quilt

I'd like to introduce my little sister and "the other daughter" as she is commonly called in our quilt world! Alayna is a kindergarten teacher in Issaquah, Washington and just got a new place up there with my brother. When she was in town last, she wanted to make a quilt for the new place and she chose to sew up a Euclid Avenue quilt.

Arcadia Avenue QAL Final Reveal - Take 2

Alrighty! I am back in Colorado and finally sharing the finished batik quilt from our Arcadia Avenue QAL! I love how this version turned out. My Mom used assorted teal, blue and purple batiks for the colors, assorted pinks for the accent, a black batik for the dark and a cream batik for the light.

Today I am sharing the perfect quilt for summer!

We made this Firelights Lane quilt up in Summer Song 2 by Zoe Pearn for Riley Blake Designs' Quilt Market booth in Minneapolis this Spring. This fun line is full of bright colors, funky flowers, multicolored stripes and blooming trees.

Canyon Boulevard in Haiku

Canyon Boulevard in Haiku

When I saw snippets of Monaluna's new fabric line, Haiku, I swooned a little! It has watercolored flowers that give the line a batik look with pops of glitzy gold accents. The color scheme of pale pink, rich eggplant, soft grey-blue and olive green is to die for! We made our Canyon Boulevard with Haiku and it has become one of my favorite quilts!

Diamond Detour in Batiks

Diamond Detour in Batiks

We love batiks. In fact, we have quite a large stash collection of them! So, we decided to make a version of the Diamond Detour in our favorite batik color combination. We pulled lime, purple, blue and turquoise printed batiks for the pieced diamonds and a gorgeous beige bubble print for the background.
