Out of curiosity, how many different fabrics did you use in this quilt. I love it, I really do. I counted 7 solids and 14 patterned for a total of 21 different fabric, but I could be wrong, I am going off your picture after all.

Beautiful quilts, I was wondering, where did you learn to machine quilt. Not the piecing together, the finishing stitches, like stippling or cross crosses?

take care,

I don’t know how you get so much done!! Would love to see the tutorial if you have time I have seen the patterns before, but I hate spending the money on patterns if I think I can figure it out myself. It’s beautiful!!

This is beautiful! I love all the bright colors and fabrics together…and I had no idea that you make a bento box quilt by cutting a square into four parts. That’s a really neat construction

Ashley, I’m amazed at the speed you crank these quilts out. Also amazed at your machine quilting skills. Did you take a class or just just pick it up on your own. I’ve tried several times without much luck. I’m sure there’s a lot of others out there that would love any advice, suggestions on machine quilting – maybe even a tutorial. I’ve got so many tops that need finishing, appreciate any help you can give. Thanks..

May be you will wonder where I come from, but here in France we do not see those fantastic quilts you’re making with such funny fabrics.
I fell in love with them and they made reconcile myself with patchwork
what is a bento box ? I definitely vote for a tutorial
