I have put aside the Kansas Dugout Quilt whilst I consider what fabric I will use for the missing side triangles ~ put aside, but definitely not out of mind or sight! You know I usually like to finish a quilt before I start the next.
It's a Hoot by MoMo for Moda
My customer's vision is very much a reflection of my own style of quilts and what's more the fabric of choice is It's a Hoot by MoMo for Moda, which so happens is already part of my stash (see Sunday Stash #78).
I spent yesterday cutting the fabric and playing around with the layout, and completed the quilt top late this afternoon. This was the perfect easy piecing project to follow the Kansas Dugout Quilt from earlier this week with its bias edges and fiddly complicated seams.

But I am happy to make an exception this time; and thought it would be a good time to start working on a Custom Quilt order that came to fruition last week.

I love how this quilt top has turned out! The colors and printed designs from this single fabric collection all work so well together that no other fabrics were added.
Aah! Simple and perfect.

Yes, just beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteRita there's something so pleasantly fun about pieced squares, it's a quilt in the most basic pattern, so nostalgic like that but the fabrics are absolutely amazing. It will sell in a split second.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your quilts! Every single one is amazing and I'm in awe by how quickly you get them done!
ReplyDeleteI have a layer cake of it's a hoot somewhere, I'm completely inspired to go and dig it out and have a play after seeing this.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful (as always).
Terrific. Such happy colors.
ReplyDeleteI've got a jelly roll of It's a Hoot that I've been struggling to work with for ages. I think the 2" strips are too small to show off the large designs in this collection. I love your layout. Simple always does the trick!
ReplyDeleteYour material color choices are SEW fabulous. Do you find time to sleep, I am amazed at how fast you can choose colors and sew.
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite lines of fabric from recent times too! I agree...everything is so wonderful together no need to make additions!
ReplyDeleteThat is really a wonderful top with great color and fabric choices!!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI made one just like this from 3 charm packs of it's a hoot and it is a huge favorite in our family--everyone from my 18 month old to my mom favors it!
ReplyDeleteIt is a fabulous fabric line, beautiful colors and that touch of grey.

ReplyDeleteThis fabric is lovely. I made my own It's a Hoot baby quilt a while back. If you're interested you can see some details from it, where I appliqued one of the birds on it here:http://sewjournal.com/2010/11/22/its-a-hoot-is-quilted/
ReplyDeleteand the finished quilt here:

Wow, what a pretty quilt and you pieced it so quickly--I bet it feels great! Those fabrics are so pretty and bright, who wouldn't love a quilt in those fabrics? Of course, now it's back to the Kansas Dugout Quilt! Happy stitching, Mary
ReplyDeleteCan't go wrong with Hoot. It is such a fun line!!
ReplyDeleteYay! So beautiful with such great fabric combined with your impeccable piecing.
ReplyDeleteI love this!! And I'll bet it was a dream to sew - with no complicated seams or angles in it. It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI even love the selvages... *drool* Ooops, sorry to dribble on your brand new quilt! :) Can't really help it with those fabrics! :D
ReplyDeleteJust love it!
ReplyDeleteFredrikke :O)
In a recent Lil' Twister class someone used It's a Hoot and I fell in love with it - now have 2 charm packs and clearly I need more! Thanks for sharing another of your wonderful quilts.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of those rare collections that thrown all together looks less like a collection and more like scrappy goodness. Perfect for this kind of simple quilt!
ReplyDeleteYay for simple but effective!
