I am so happy to be able to reveal my Spanish Tiles quilt.
You'll find the super easy pattern in Spring 2011 Quilts and More magazine.
I just received my copy today.
I love this quilt.
It is made with Moda Basic Grey Blush fabric line.
It has a bit of a Valentine feel I think.
This is the original 'Spanish Tiles' quilt.
I made it in Flutterby by Tula Pink.
It was made with charm packs that I had in my stash.
Tula Pink style Spanish Tiles hung on my living room wall for months. It about drove me crazy that I couldn't show it to you.
She quilted both of the these for me.
I love them both.
The picture do not do these quilts justice. I mean I know I am biased...but really to see the quilting textures and prints makes a big difference.
There are individual motifs in the plain squares that also look like Spanish Tiles. It's amazing.
I am excited to have the blush version of tiles back home, just in time for Valentine's Day and well to me it looks an aweful lot Valentine-ish. It's even quilted with this pretty artful heart pattern.
Notice how much the design changed in Blush? no yo-yos and no rick rack! totally stripped down. BUT still a great quilt. I loved it sooo much once it was bound and washed that I nearly refused to send to Quilts and More!
Anyhow, tomorrow I am off to sew with the peeps in Columbus.
Should be a grand Saturday :)
luv it!!! and it looks beautiful in the Blush fabric! Can't wait to get the magazine...may have to make one in Natures Notebook scraps to go with my Postage Stamp!!
ReplyDeletethis is such a versatile pattern! A big congratulations on the published pattern!!!
ReplyDeleteVickie, I love it. I've been looking for the perfect pattern to use some scraps from a previous project. Looks like I found it. And I just picked up the magazine yesterday. Karma, kismet, meant to be...I think so.
