Color Love--The BOM Quilts
Okay, so a while back I showed off my upcoming Color Love
fabric collection from Marcus Fabrics with a sneak peek at an applique
block. Since we leave tomorrow for Spring Quilt Market, I thought it
might be a good time to show a few images of the Color Love BOM quilts.
The reason I say "quilts", plural, is because there are two versions of
the same quilt: an applique version and a pieced version. The quilts
finish at 87" x 93" and the program is designed as a five-part BOM, with
"flex" options to make it longer if desired.
Here is my EQ rendering of the applique version. See the eight cute applique blocks surrounding the center star? They are made up of simple shapes, and to make things even easier, we are offering the blocks as laser cut, pre-fused blocks.
And here is the pieced version for those who do not do the "A" word.
And here is a photo of the actual applique Color Love quilt spread out on my living room floor. I had A LOT of help with this quilt from some great ladies in Albuquerque,NM. Thank you Amanda Ruden! The pieced quilt was made by Sandy Kent who lives in Texas. I'd show you photos of it too, but it is all folded and packed in a suitcase, ready to go to Pittsburg tomorrow.
Isn't the quilting perfect? Elizabeth Anne Dawson of Albuquerque, NM worked her longarm magic on the quilt.
Ask for Color Love at your local quilt shop. The program is slated to begin September 2014. You can find additional information on the Marcus Fabrics website.

Color Love is Here
Color Love--that's
the name of my newest fabric collection with Marcus Fabrics. Here's my
sample yardage all laid out on my cutting table, ready to be put to
work. Oh, my pretties!
So there is already a plan for Color Love--a block-of-the-month quilt also called Color Love. It is a five part BOM with an applique' option, slated to begin shipping June 2014. Ask for it at your local There are two version of the same quilt--one pieced and one with some applique. To makes things even more fun, we have ordered up a bunch of the applique' blocks from a company that does laser cutting. Yesterday I worked on the seven applique' blocks. It was so easy to just peel and fuse the shapes in place and then buttonhole stitch around the patches. Now, mind you, I am not the most proficient person when it comes to buttonhole stitching, but I did manage to get the job done. Here's a block and some close ups.

Clara's Pride
It's always so thrilling to see something I made in print! And on the cover! Can you see it peeking out from under the quilt on the far right?
Here is Clara's Pride which is in the Jan/Feb 2014 edition of McCall's Quilting. The blocks are large so they go together relatively quickly and there are only nine of them. The finished quilt is 70 1/2" square.
Pieces from three Marcus Fabric collections are in the quilt. We have kits with the fabrics shown for $94 on our website, nancyrinkdesigns.com.
