I used the new Chrysalis collection by Sanae. (Remember this pile?) Some great prints. I love Sanae. If you've been around a while, you already know my Arcadia love.
This is kind of a BIG quilt. About 84" x 84" - but it comes together really quickly for a bigger project.
The fabulous quilting on this quilt was done by my friend and co-worker at American Quilting in Orem, Utah, Becky Heslop. She did an AMAZING job. Thanks again Becky! If you're local, the quilt is hanging at AQ right now. And a limited number of kits will be available at American Quilting soon.
Head over to Moda Bake Shop to see the tutorial. I would love to get your thoughts, feelings, vehement opinions, violent reactions, whatever you've got for me.

ReplyDeleteI want to make my youngest son a quilt using charm squares set on point, so I'll definately be refering to this tutorial. It's beautiful. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love that design! I am slooow-ly working towards a quilt of baby clothes and this would be a nice way to showcase the blocks--and to not have to make too many. I appreciate all of the tips and tutorials.
ReplyDeleteMy violent opinion is that I wish I was still your neighbor so that you could be my personal quilting guru. But alas . . . I'll have to settle for admiring through cyberspace. And congrats on the MBS slot! You're so worthy!
ReplyDeleteSaw the MBS post before I got to your blog post today. Love it!! Already printed it. The solid you chose makes all the colors of the line pop. I just received some Chrysalis in the mail. This line is fabulous and I will definitely be ordering more. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteOh, it's fantastic! I was hoping Chrysalis might have the same feel as Arcadia, and it does! I'm off to check out your tutorial!
ReplyDeleteAmy it's great. Congrats. And I share your Arcadia love so the coloring is perfect!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! The quilt is so pretty - ANOTHER bookmarked MBS page for me to work on someday!
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is gorgeous! I love the design- it shows off the fabric beautifully! Congratulations on your MBS project!
ReplyDeletexoxo,

Well, I LOVE it!!! I already have a Chrysalis layer cake, looks like this could be the perfect recipe for me :) Just need a charm pack to get started!
ReplyDeleteLOOKS GREAT! I love that it is a big quilt. I love Sanae and Arcadia too. I plan to love this new line just as much.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great quilt. And I LOVE Chrysalis--especially the orange. Congrats on being a "baker."
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love it. Great job!! I really love the back part too.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! I just ordered the charm packs and jelly rolls of Chrysalis, unfortunately, not layer cakes though. But I DO have Stone in stock! Yipee! Glad to see I have something that goes with it so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteIts about time they had you do a pattern! Love the back!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt, and congrats on being a MODA chef. I need to find me a good quilter, it makes all the difference.
