Bright and Bold Fabrics!

This quilt is made with Venice by Robert Kaufman.  The fabrics are bright and bold florals and leaf designs, and the fabric is extra smooth and soft beyond most quilting fabrics.  It's perfectly paired with Confetti Cotton in Bright White by Riley Blake Designs.

The backing and binding are made with a print from the Venice collection.

Venice fabric is available here on Etsy.

Longarm Machine Quilting

The digital quilting design used on this quilt is Heart Song by Melissa of Sew Shabby Pantos.  It's the perfect blend of echoed hearts and swirls.  Longarm quilted in white thread on a Bernina Q-matic.  

Inside the quilt are two layers of batting - Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool and Hobbs Heirloom 80/20 Cotton/Poly.  These two layers make this quilt perfect for almost year-round use, except in the dog days of summer.  :)

This quilt was made in its entirety by Kare Ybarra.  Didn't she do an awesome job?!

The Grid Pop design came about when I was playing with a carton of 5-dozen eggs.  This design popped out at me, so I took it to EQ8, my quilt design software, and the magic happened when blocks were joined together, and Grid Pop was designed!

The Grid Pop quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Stunning Floral Fabrics

Two Methods of Block Piecing - Traditional Piecing and Strip Piecing

This quilt was made with the Strip Piecing method of piecing, because I am a strip piecer at heart ♥.  I figured out the math to make jelly roll strips work for the 9-Patch block, and it's all included in the pattern for you, along with 9 sizes!

The Primrose quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Longarm Machine Quilting

The quilting design on this quilt is Ribbon Curls, a design I've used many times because it is so versatile and creates a soft quilt.  Quilted on my Handi Quilter Amara with ProStitcher.

The backing is a combination of two Color Stories Watercolor prints in light violet and dark violet.  I didn't have any yardage from the collection, so I used these prints in my stash.  The binding is made from leftover strips from the roll-up.

The Primrose quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Primrose Throw Quilt in a Rainbow of Kimberbell Basics!

It has been too long since I've made a rainbow quilt!  This one was so fun to put together in the Primrose quilt pattern with the 9-patch blocks in all colors of the rainbow radiating across the quilt top.  

The Primrose quilt pattern includes 9 sizes (!), is jelly roll friendly, and includes instructions for both strip piecing and traditional piecing.  The Primrose quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

A Beautiful Rainbow

This quilt was made with half of a Kimberbell Basics Bright Lights jelly roll by Maywood Studio.  The Large Throw sizes uses 20 strips.  This jelly roll was easy to use with each fabric is duplicated twice, so I didn't have to decide which prints to use!  Easy peasy!  The background is Confetti Cottons Bright White by Riley Blake Designs.  

This fabric is available right here on Etsy.

• 2-1/2" Jelly Roll strip friendly

Longarm Machine Quilting

The quilting design on this quilt is a combination of hearts, swirls, and Baptist fans.  I love the movement in this design!  It is called Heart Song from Sew Shabby Pantos.  Quilted in Bright White thread on my Handi Quilter Amara with ProStitcher.

Two Methods of Block Piecing - Traditional Piecing and Strip Piecing

This quilt was made with the Traditional Piecing method of piecing, even though I am a strip piecer at heart ♥.  Piecing the blocks square by square is a relaxing way to piece quilt blocks.  I figured out the math to use jelly roll strips to make multiple 9-Patch blocks, and it's all included in the pattern for you, along with 9 sizes!

The rainbow of prints are arranged in a diagonal design across the quilt top, distributing like prints as much as possible.  Some of the colorways in the jelly roll have only two prints, so they were placed every other one.  Laying out a rainbow of blocks in a diagonal design isn't an exact science and can be quite challenging, so a design wall is super helpful for this.  I try not to sweat block placement too much, but on this quilt I did rip out a few blocks and switch them up when assembling the quilt top.

The Primrose quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.
