Happy Flower Quilts ~ My Fabric Pull

The Happy Flower QAL starts on Monday!  Are you ready?  Are you as excited as I am?  Please feel free to grab this banner for your blog if you like. :)

I've had some requests to share the fabrics I'll be using.  I meant to show these sooner (sorry).

So here's a quick tour of the fabrics I've pulled from my stash for the QAL.  I'm sure I'll be adding to these throughout the year 'cause new stuff is always coming out that I simply can't resist. ;)

The original quilt doesn't have much - if any - purples, oranges, and browns (or blacks).  Not sure if I'll be adding some to mine or not.  We'll see. 

It looks to me like Atsuko used either mostly original or reproduction feedsacks used for her quilt.  And wow are they ever bright!!!  That must be why I love it.  And why it's so happy.  I'm more or less taking my fabric choice cues for colour/print/scales from each block, as best I can.

I don't think there is one fabric in the bunch that I didn't like and wouldn't use. They are all just to pretty and cute and needing to be used. Love them all.

I just love your pictures. And the fabrics are so pretty (especially the white "tower"), it makes a person think they should do this QAL. I'm sure yours will be gorgeous.

I'm not sure I've ever told you how wonderful your pictures are that you post. These fabrics are just so yummy - makes me think I should be petting them - on screen! I can't remember...is this QAL a blog hop or is it just on Instagram? If it's Instagram and I'm not on Instagram, can I still follow along? Thanks, Kristyne.

From the Happy Flower quilts, what size blocks are these?
March 4, 2017 | Unregistered CommenterBev Baggett
Hi Bev, the pieced blocks are 6" finished and the applique blocks are 5" finished with a 1/2" border to make it 6". Hope that makes sense.
