We have a record for the fastest pattern tester to ever finish I think, Marti from 52 Quilts in 52 Weeks. I contacted her this morning with the pattern, and she already sent me a picture of her finished quilt top!

I just wanted to write a quick post to say thank you to all of you who volunteered to test my Colorblock Quilt pattern! I tried to find a good mix of beginner, intermediate, and advanced sewists, and there were lots of you in every category! There will definitely be more patterns to test in the future, and I will always come here first for pattern testers so there will be more opportunities if you missed out this time.

I cannot explain how happy it makes me to see other people make this quilt! Marti used fabrics from Valori Wells (Nest and Wrenly lines, I think?), and they make for such a happy springy quilt, I absolutely love it!

ReplyDeleteNicke, this is such a great pattern, the instructions are crystal clear. Everyone shold have this pattern in case of the "Oh, Mom, could you make a baby quilt for my teacher who is having a baby THIS WEEK!?" request!
ReplyDeleteLove the color block quilt and can't wait for the pattern. Can you tell me where you got the chevron fabric for the girl's quilt?
ReplyDeleteJen, the chevron fabric is Heather Bailey's Pop Garden Zig Zag... but unfortunately the line is out of print now. You might be able to find it on eBay or Etsy though!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for this pattern! My little guy is due in June and I have my eye on the perfect fabrics for this. Can't wait!
