How To Make Twilight In The Garden Quilt From Fons And Porter

MQ10915

Hello Friends, I hope you have had a blessed Thanksgiving weekend! I took a few days off to spend with my little family, and we had a sweet time together. I told you I would be doing photo shoots of my featured magazine quilts after my most recent trip, and I had been. First up, we haveTwilight Trellisthat was featured in the September/October 2015 issue ofMcCall's Quilting.

I love this quilt! It is made with Chambray Rosefabrics from Windham.

A big reason I love this quilt is because it is a simple-to-construct quilt, and the secondary design turns up a few Sawtooth Stars. You know how I just adore Sawtooth Stars! You may clickhereandhere to check out my quest for ways of using Sawtooth Star blocks in my designs.

Design 2a_64.5 x 64.5

You may purchase the exclusive quilt kithere.

Another reason why I love this quilt is the use of stripes in the design.

I was happy to have the help of sample maker Jennifer Green to piece the quilt top for me, and quilter Sheri Zalar to quilt the quilt. As much as I try to make all my featured quilts, I am glad there are quilt angels out there to make my quilts happen when I am pressed for time.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing Twilight Trellis! It's been an absolute honor and pleasure to be able to share my designs with you!! Here is a sneak peek of more magazine quilts I will be sharing with you… you did notice the quilt on the left has Sawtooth Stars, yes? :)

For the first time, life is taking on a more normal routine since Fall Quilt Market in Houston. I am cherishing the normals in my life at the moment. I know I still owe you an announcement of the winner of a giveaway I hosted quite a few weeks ago. I haven't forgotten – I hope to get to it before the week ends. And with that, I bid you adios for now! Till next time – Happy Monday and Happy Week to you all! p.s. Can you believe there are still leaves on the trees?
