Flower Pot Mini Charm Fun Daisy Runner

So much fun putting together this Flower Pot (by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics) version of my Mini Charm Fun Daisy Runner quilt pattern. With simple cutting and simple piecing, this table runner went together so quickly.
The warm colors are just perfect for these rainy fall days we have been having lately.
Can we take a moment to appreciate the longarm quilting design?
Such a fun edge-to-edge long arm quilting pantograph to stitch out!
It is Autum Oak from Molly at Lovely Threads Quilts.
I used a warmer thread for the quilting (Superior Threads SoFine - 452) and absolutely love how it shows off without overpowering the fabric prints and colors.
Loving the mix of berries, acorns, leaves, and swirls blending perfectly with the Fower Pot prints.
It's looks lovely hanging in our front entry way.

Finished quilt 16" x 42".
The little extra width makes it perfect for hanging.

Happy quilting, everyone!

Sweet Meadow Charming Breezes table runner

 

Charming Breezes might be my favorite table runner quilt pattern. It checks all the boxes - striking design, charm pack friendly, room for a favorite focal point fabric, and easy cutting and piecing.

This particular Charming Breezes table runner is made with Sweet Meadow from Benartex. So so lovely! The prints and colors are beautiful. You know I adore tiny prints and that border floral is perfection!

Not sure where this runner is going to live come spring/summer, but for now I'm happy that its loveliness is finished.
 
The pattern includes three sizes -
14" x 40"
14" x 60"
14" x 80".
I made up the 14" x 60" and actually made two runners at a time with one charm pack - one to keep and one to gift.
The gifted one is quilted with the Melissa's Petal Tiles edge-to-edge long arm quilting pantograph that I got from Urban Elementz. The tile effect reminds me of tiles you might see used in old European homes and suits the fabric so well. 
See how the quilting is centered so perfectly? Pure happenstance : ) and I love it!
The E2E long arm quilting pantograph on the one I kept is Briar Rose in Spring from My Creative Stitches. As usual for any longarm quilting panto from them, it stitched out smoothly and beautifully.
Really really love how this quilted tablerunner turned out. The quilting is perfect.
The little quilted flower motif mimics the little flower in the border print.
Just a couple more sweet pics of Sweet Meadow's loveliness.
Happy quilting, everyone!

Strawberry Fields Bullseye Barn Quilt

Earlier this year I was fortunate enough to score a charm pack of Strawberry Fields by Fig Tree for Moda Fabrics.  For those who don't know, this is in my top three most favorite fabric lines, but I did not have a charm pack until now (and charm packs are my most favorite precut to work with : ) 
I feel like one of the luckiest people alive right now!

I needed to make up a charm pack version of the Bullseye Barn Quilt pattern AND I wanted to sew with Strawberry Fields this year so happy match!

The charm pack version of the Bullseye Barn Quilt pattern makes up a nice-sized wallhanging quilt (would also make a lovely baby quilt) at about 50" square - a very nice statement quilt.

Love how it turned out. The Woven Wind (www.urbanelementz.com) edge-to-edge longarm quilting pantograph adds so much crazy good texture!

Really like the border effect of the Woven Wind long arm E2E quilting panto.

Another look at all the quilty texture!


The Bullseye Barn Quilt pattern is available in my shop at freshdewdrops.etsy.com.


Happy quilting, everyone!

PS: Still loving the Strawberry Fields  fabric line by Fig Tree & Co for Moda fabrics.
