I’ve Got the Blues!

Riley Blake Designs Confetti Cottons & Crayola Solids

I’ve been swimming in blues this week, playing with some Riley Blake Designs CONFETTI COTTONS. Riley Blake Designs has a huge array of solid color fabrics, or Confetti Cottons, to choose from, and their blues are some of my absolute favorites!

Just look at these gorgeous blues! They looked so peaceful and beachy, I had to bring out my sand dollars for a glamour shot!

From top to bottom, the fabric names are: Scuba, Deep Water, Bleached Denim, Rainforest, Peacock, Deep Water, Riley Aqua, Navy

Riley Blake Designs Confetti Cottons: Blue Modern Log Cabin Block

I have been slowly working on this modern log cabin quilt featured on the cover of “By the Block: 18 Surprisingly Simple Quilts to Make,” by Siobhan Rogers. I used the blues in the photo above, along with Riley Blake and the square of Light Gray in the center.

When hung up on the glass door, it almost looks like stained glass! The quilt features 4 Log Cabin style blocks, but make no mistake, these blocks are big!

Each block will measure 24″ x 28″. The finished quilt will measure 48″ x 56″, so you will have a good sized throw quilt when you are done.

If this block looks familiar to you, it’s because I shared photos of the pink block HERE.

I will have another block ready to show you next month, so stay tuned! You can view the full collection of  Confetti Cottons PLUS our fun Crayola Colors HERE.

Happy Sewing!
