Life in the Scrapatch: 10 Quilts ~ 10 Days ~ Day 8 ~My Jolly Bar Jazz Quilt

10 Quilts ~ 10 Days ~ Day 8

This is my

because it is snowing here again

and I need a few sundrops of summer today.

This quilt was made using this free

This is one of my favorite bed quilts

although it also lives on the back of my sofa for snuggling under on

cool spring and summer nights when the windows are open.

I love these Sundrops fabrics by Corey Yoder

and paired it with a lovely spring green script print in my stash

from another Moda line.

As my creative quilty muse loves to do,

I played with this pattern and added red posts in the green sashing

to create a secondary element to the original quilt design.

This is the large 17" block in the pattern.

With my extra jolly bar fabrics, I made a different block design by turning the corner units and made a toss pillow to go with my quilt.

I love using up fabrics and playing with the pieces.

Someday I would love to make this quilt again

and see what my quity muse might decide to make.

I once saw a quilt on IG where the quilter used similar colors and green sashing

and made a quilt that looked very much like mine.

It made me happy.

I love sharing and swapping quilty ideas with other quilters.

This quilt is a breath of fresh air and sundrops.

This pattern is one of many, many free

Update:
