Tumbler Quilt Finished

I finished my tumbler quilt last week and I brought it with me to get some good photographs when I went to visit my parents at their beach house.

I love the way this quilt came out. I started this as a leaders and enders project a while back.

I used four charm packs of Kate Spain's Fandango line that I cut out using my Accuquilt Go! cutter.  I used the baby die for this one since the regular die is larger than a charm pack. 

I quilted this one by quilting on either size of the zig zag seam and I really like how it came out.  I think the quilting looks even better on the back of the quilt.

It's backed using an Art Gallery print that I had in my stash.  It's from the Botanica line. 

My brother-in-law is expecting a baby in November, and if it ends up being a girl, I was thinking of giving this quilt to the new baby since it's a perfect baby sized quilt.  I forget the actual dimensions, but it took just a one yard cut of fabric for the backing.

Tumbler Quilt Finished

I started making a tumbler quilt using Kate Spain's Fandango fabric a while ago as a leader and ender project.  I started by sewing tumblers in groups of twos randomly, but with purpose.  I never pieced the same color or pattern together.  The pieces were cut with my Go! cutter out of two charm packs of Kate Spain's Fandango.  Well, I finished the quilt at retreat this weekend and I can officially have my design wall back at my house. 

Here's the quilt up on the design wall at retreat. I have been working on this one for quite some time, at least six months, so it's good to see it completed.  I'll probably finish it with some straight line quilting. It's not very big, so it shouldn't take me that long. 

Here's a close up of the quilt.

This was quilt top number one that I finished at retreat!  Yay!

Leaders and Enders

A few weeks ago I cut 4 charm packs using my Accuquilt Go using a tumbler die.  Ever since, the pile of tumblers has been sitting next to my sewing machine and I've been using them as a leader and ender project. 

Right now these have just been assembled into pairs and I have them sitting up on my design wall for now.  There will be 12 or 13 rows total with 12 blocks across.  My guess is that I'll go with a 12x12 design since I like symmetry.
