Blogger's Quilt Festival Fall 2013

I finished my latest scrappy quilt just in time for Amy's Blogger's Quilt Festival.  If not for the deadline, it would probably still not have binding!

I wanted to decrease my fat quarter stash so decided to make another quilt using the Spring Fever quilt pattern by Buggy Barn. It takes 30 fat quarters. One might assume that using 30 fat quarters would make a dent in my stash. Right?  Well, the dent is hard to see!  I used fabrics that I thought would give my quilt a vintage look and I must have succeeded because my grandson told me that it looked a "little old fashioned".


This is the second quilt I've made using this pattern.  The first one was black and white only.  Very different quilts but I like them both.  Be sure to visit Amy's Creative Side to see all the quilts in the Festival!

  1. Looks like such a fun pattern. I know exactly what you mean when your stash doesn't seem to be decreasing no matter what! I like the look of the black and white too! I will look for it when I visit Blogger's Quilt Festival. I can't believe you're a grandmother! You look way too young!

  2. How fun! And it does have a vintage feel to it - very 30s.

  4. These quilts are so fun. I recently bought the pattern book, and I'm going to make it this winter.

  5. That is a fun quilt for sure. My stash is getting so small, I'm going to have to decide soon what kind of quilter I want to be when I grow up! :) Yep, it's a Grandma quilt! I love those kind. They look inviting! Great job!
