Today I am featuring my Same Sky Quilt! I made this quilt as a test version for Modernly Morgan a year ago and recently finished it up for a dear friend's husband to gift her for Mother's Day. It makes me so happy to see these quilts used and loved by others :)
This stunning pattern is written by the very talented Morgan at Modernly Morgan and the fabric bundle is from my shop, Kristin Quinn Creative.
The bundle includes fabrics from various collections by Rifle Paper Co., Art Gallery Fabrics, Dear Stella, Riley Blake Designs and PBS Fabrics. They all combine to form a very warm color gradient when similar colors are grouped and sewn together.
There are 16 different prints and solids included and come as a quilt kit which includes background fabric and binding, or as a bundle you could use any way you choose!
For the backing, I chose a coordinating Art Gallery print, Lilliputian, from the Lilliput collection by Sharon Holland. I love how the smaller scale of the print pairs with the larger scale blocks from the quilt top.
The beautiful quilting on this quilt was done by Melonie at Quilty Lab Creations. I discovered her when I was searching for Longarm quilters in the DFW area and she has been a dream to work with! The designs and quality of work are amazing and she has a very fast turnaround.
Lastly, I finished the quilt with a gold stripe binding to bring it all together! A striped binding is always my go-to and I love that this one is thin and on a diagonal. It is from the Daybreak collection by Fran Gulick for Riley Blake Designs.
If you're planning to make this pattern, here are some of my favorite tools to help get those perfect points and layout the perfect color gradient!
So tell me, have you made this quilt yet?!
