My Favorite Things Fabric Tour

I have been a fan of Elea Lutz' designs since I first discovered her in 2015.  

Her first fabric line was Milk, Sugar, and Flower (which was absolutely adorable; 

I'm sad I missed out on it!)  However, I did end up making a 

Christmas quilt with her second fabric line, Little Joys.

 Today I get to share some projects I made with her

most recent fabric line, My Favorite Things.  It has that 

sweet, vintage style that Elea is known for.  And she is now a designer for 

Poppie Cotton which I think is a match made in heaven!

As you can see the line is full of soft pinks, blues, buttery yellows, creamy whites

and tans...with a little pop of red!  Such a cute color palette!  There are lots of 

different florals in various scales and one of my favorite things - text prints!  

But the main print features many of Elea's favorite

things (which I'm sure most of us can relate to.)  See THIS post

on Elea's blog for more pictures, the inspiration behind this collection, 

the darling coordinating cheater print, and a free mini

quilt pattern that Elea is offering to members of her new Facebook group. 

The first project I made with My Favorite Things

was a throw-size version of my Rough and Tumble pattern.

It comes with instructions for 5 different sizes!

I had so much fun playing with 5" squares of

My Favorite Things + a few solid fabrics 

and a tan with a white dot background fabric.

I love this pattern because the blocks go together really quickly

and there is no sashing!  So it's a very fast make, overall.

I bound it with the red Good Measure grid fabric from my fabric line, 

Treasured Treads with Poppie Cotton and backed it in a

large green gingham fabric from Riley Blake.

My friend, Jen Ostler in Highland, UT quilted it for me.

She did a fantastic job, as always!  The quilting pantograph 

she used is called Fluffy Lumps.  It's a new-to-me design

that I thought complimented the scalloped/floral print in 

My Favorite Things really well!  She also quilted a tiny heart 

on the quilt for me to find - in a little game of quilters' hide and seek.  

Can you see it?

I just couldn't get enough of My Favorite Things so I decided

to make one more project with the remaining fabric I had.  But don't

worry, it was a super fast baby quilt that just takes a couple of hours to put together.

I've had many requests for this pattern called, Big Baby.

It was originally in my book, Vintage Vibe

but it's out of print now so I decided to make Big

Baby into an individual pattern which you can find in my shop, HERE.

The pantograph is called Cartwheels and the quilt finishes at 38" square.

It's a big-block baby quilt version of my Scrap Jar Stars pattern.

It goes together so fast and looks cute in any colorway!

Perfect for gift-giving!

I love this fabric line and am so thankful that I got to be a part of

the My Favorite Things Fabric Tour.  My Favorite Things is in stores now

so be sure to run out and grab some before it's all gone!
