The time has come to cut into my stash of Echo by Lotta Jansdotter.
Echo by Lotta Jansdotter is such a pretty fabric collection that I was keen to feature the fabrics; accordingly the quilt design is super simple. I have used a neutral gingham fabric for sashing around each of the quilt blocks which helps to soften and blend the colors.
The quilt top is now ready for basting, quilting, and binding. Busy days are ahead!

ReplyDeleteI really REALLY like the checks you used in the sashing.
ReplyDeleteAm on the verge of cutting into mine! This looks great and the gingham does the job brilliantly!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I have yet to cut into my Echo stash as well, but I think I will also use a really simple design to really show this gorgeous fabric. I love how you paired it with the gingham.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it weird how difficult it is to cut into our favorite fabric? ha ha! You quilt top is beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteit looks so neat and tidy with all the seams showing through from behind but just out of interest is there a reason why you iron all the seams to the white side and not the colour when the two meet? This is going to be a lovely quilt. the fabrics are so interesting and the sashing works really well.
ReplyDeletePretty fabrics, pretty colours, pretty quilt.
ReplyDeleteOoh I love that Rita. Really interesting!
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely! I haven't been brave enough to hack into mine.
ReplyDeleteOoo so pretty! Love this design with this line!

ReplyDeleteStriking. I've been wondering about this bunch of fabrics. Really do like them, thank you for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThat is so amazing. I love its simplicity in showcasing these fabrics.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! The choice of the gingham is spot- (or rather square) on!!
ReplyDeleteI love that line of fabrics and love what you're doing with them. I would never have thought of using such a neutral (and gingham, at that) fabric to sash the blocks, but it's just perfect!! But then, that's why I read your blog...
ReplyDeleteI love love love that line and you did a great job with that top. So simple, yet so effective. Can't wait to see it quilted and bound.
ReplyDeleteThat is just beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteOh, gosh - I love, love, love this! I never would have thought of a neutral gingham. So lovely.
ReplyDeleteJust don't want to cut into mine1
ReplyDeleteGingham hurts my eyes and looks too busy-- I would NEVER have chosen that as a sashing and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Oh my goodness.... the things I think I would never like, right?! I'm in awe-- that is GORGEOUS!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Rita,
ReplyDeleteI just love these fabrics and have been doing a mad look around to try and find them since you posted this quilt top. I also love the pez you added in and there is a bright yellow and white ring you've added and I was wondering what fabric that was as well.
Love love love this so much!
Cheers :)
What a great choice of sashing! Love the gingham. It really shows off the Echo in a new way.
ReplyDeleteWOW! I just love what you decided to do with these fabrics! Sometimes I see a fabric collection that I love, but I'm not sure what to do with it because the fabric looks so beautiful already.
