The beginning stages of making a quilt are just so delicious. Pondering fabric choices, cutting, and seeing the first blocks take shape…I love that process.
In today’s vlog, I take you behind the scenes so you can see how my creative quilting process starts. (Hint: It often starts with a cup of tea and some pretty fabric to contemplate.)
For this new quilt, I am using only Tilda fabrics. I wish I would give you exact yardage requirements and I will when the quilt top is done and I know how much I am using of the different fabrics. I’ll keep you posted! In the meantime, here is a list of resources for the fabrics I used.

For the log cabin paper foundations, I am using the 5-inch log cabin paper piecing foundations that I have available in the shop. I will probably end up with about 100-140 blocks for this quilt, so plan on 3 booklets of templates if you want to follow my example.
Hope you enjoy it!
