It stars Sakura Park cherry blossom fabric by Moda. I purchased a layer cake of 10" squares. I think it had 42 different squares, in shades of pinks, blues, greens and white. I used the Piece of Cake pattern from quilt In A Day. Fun, easy, and fast, and so pretty!
I used a stencil design to quilt the larger sections of the blocks, feathers in the rectangles, and cherries in the small squares, using Aurifil 50wt in white. I used Aurifil 40wt in variegated pinks for the feathers in the border. What I love about Aurifil is that it doesn't break! All of those stitches, over 10 bobbins, and no breakage. 50wt white is in the bobbin, to match the backing. I used a light pink in the needle and bobbin for the binding. Yes, all Aurifil. I'm totally and Aurifil girl! I need to get more of the 40wt for sewing clothes. I like the durability in the seams!
So pretty, and large enough for a Twin bed. It's currently available in my Etsy store.
I love finishing quilts!
