I knew that If I focused on some finishes, I could quickly cross a number of items off my list!
Today's finish is Out of this World!
This project started out with two Lily & Loom Space Camp charm squares. These are one of the Craftsy fabric lines and I like to ensure that the quality is nice if I am going to be an affiliate.
I like to use the products I promote!
I can say this fabric is really nice. There was almost no lint or fraying as I assembled the quilt and the colors in the fabric are bright and well printed.
I pulled some Kona Navy and Coal to go with the fabrics. I used Cheryl Brickey's Building Blocks pattern (Moda Bakeshop) as inspiration. Mine looks a little different but 2 charm squares works perfectly for this layout (with the ability to toss a few out).
The space themed prints in this collection are so much fun. Perfect for that special future astronaut!
I should have ordered some backing fabric from the same collection but you know I can't wait to get things quilted up and finished once a top is complete. So I pulled a Kaffe Collective piece that was already in my stash.
The finished quilt measures about 49" x 54". And it is cute, cute, cute!
So I was really pleased with the quality of the fabric and the prints included in the collection are adorable. If you want to make one for yourself, I see this collection is already on clearance as Craftsy releases new ones quite often.
I should also say, I tested out Craftsy's new Pima Cotton thread and I have to say it ran really nicely through my machine. I have already almost used up an entire spool!
