Be My Neighbor Quilt and Pattern

Hello!  Welcome to my neighborhood.  This is the Be My Neighbor quilt.  It's one of my newest patterns, available now in the Curlicue Creations Etsy shop and select quilt shops around the U.S.A.

This is one of the five quilts I made to support my signature fabric collection, Sunlit Garden.  This fabric is so bright and pretty!  I love the reds, blues, greens, and white and the pretty flower designs by Jerry Khiev.  It's an Island Batik (Lumin Fabrics) collection.

I've always loved house quilts and I've made a few of them over the years.  Isn't this blue house block lovely?  Do you see how it uses four different blue fabrics from the Sunlit Garden collection?

Here are some of the blocks up on my design wall as I was putting the quilt top together.  It was fun to design and stitch the red, green, blue, and rainbow house blocks.

Quilting the Be My Neighbor quilt was a joy as well.  It is fun for me to make quilts with different colors in the blocks.  I quilted a loopy meander in an allover design with a light green thread.

Hello!  Welcome to the first day of the Sunlit Garden Blog Hop.  Thanks for stopping by.  Sunlit Garden is my new signature fabric collection with Island Batik, designed by Jerry Khiev.

Sunlit Garden features gorgeous hues of red, green, and teal.  The designs include daisies, scattered wildflowers, speckles, and a couple more floral and foliage patterns.  There are 20 fabrics in this collection.  The Sunlit Garden fabric collection should be available in local quilt shops now. 

I made five new quilts and patterns to support the Sunlit Garden fabric.  Here are my quilts:
