Working with Wonderland by Momo again, has been a lot of fun! After much deliberation, and a little experimentation…this is the main quilt –
Aren’t my helpers cute?
After chopping up four blocks, and putting them back together, I decided I didn’t need to push myself out of my box on this quilt!
Since the blocks are so full of pattern, and a variety of strip widths, the wonky blocks are even busier than I had imagined! While it was a fun experiment, I decided to surround the few blocks with Bella Tan, and let it be. It worked out to 60″ square, and I like it, but was so glad that I stopped there with the wonky cuts!
The busy blocks are so fun all together, and it measures 93″ square…which qualifies it as a queen size quilt!
I can’t wait to get this one finished up!
What did you work on this weekend?
I’ll be back tomorrow with a “Sewing with Kids” post!
See you then –
Amy
That turned out really nice!. It looks like a Fun quilt!!
I had wondered a few days ago when you put the strip of blocks on the tan fabric what you were doing… It turned out beautiful!!
I admire your willingness to chop some blocks up. It’s one of those things where you don’t know until you try, right?
I finished my sun quilt (a teacher gift for the classroom) and 7 small quilts. As I photographed them hanging from my fence and the wind played with them, I thought of you and your video tutorial. :-)
I LOVE it, Amy!!
Gorgeous!! What are you using for the backing?
I snagged a copy of the “Stash Happy” book and am making the Hobo bag using my leftovers from the Modern Maze quilt. I think it will be cute!
It’s fantastic, I love it, it’s so bright and cheery! I’m still working on my first quilt (week 3) and wonder where everyone finds the time to whip out a quilt top a week! I don’t even have little ones!!!
I love this! The backing is just a little crazy and goes well with the others. I’ll have to give it a try sometime.
Glad you stopped wacking!! I thought the quilt was perfect just the way it was when you first posted it. Beautiful!
Oh my goodness…it is beautiful!!! Those fabrics make me happy :) No sewing for me this weekend. Instead I got to watch my boys play some baseball…8 games in all!!! Looking forward to your post tomorrow. Smiles~beth
A really, really fun, bright, and cheery quilt. Well done.
Have a super great sewing and stitching day.
I love this one, Amy! I love the fabrics, the colors, and the design you chose! Perfect!
It looks lovely – just the thing for a summer quilt!
P.S. Your helpers are oh-so-cute!
You threw this together super quick! Great work woman!
Good calls in the end!
I worked on sleep this weekend.
Very cute Amy! I think I like it better left than wonky :)
It looks terrific! Sometimes simple is best!
Wow! I am in love with all those colors! And to be honest, I’m loving the wonkiness too! :-)
It’s gorgeous! Looooove Wonderland :) I’m so glad you didn’t chop up all the blocks heehee!
So beautiful! I really love the colors! I just finished up a baby quilt for a friend of mine. It’s quite smaller than yours and didn’t need any helpers to take the photo. :)
It’s beautiful, I could be tempted to cut into my FQ stack, but then again! lol I spent the weekend finishing up my It’s a Hoot Bricks quilt, now for the binding :)
It looks great!
LOVE it! BOth sides are perfect!
this is so gorgeous…i love wonderland
Beautiful, but how can anyone sleep under something that bright?
I’ll be glad too finish one table runner by the time the week is up.
I LOVE your quilt. Is there a pattern or how do you ever do one like that? How do you begin?
I loved it, beautiful colors!!thanks for sharing
It’s a great quilt Amy! Are you going to tell us more about your design plan? I have Wonderland hanging out in my stash and this is looking like something I might like to make.
Wonderful – yep, the wonky blocks ARE too busy, they look good tamed down though. Lovely quilt and helpers!
Beautiful!
