Did you happen to see any of the yellow and white quilts made for the Under the Garden Moon Quilt Retreat? There were several lovely quilts, but there was one Blossom quilt that really appealed to me, so I ordered some yellow fabric and bought the pattern.
I used Joanna Figueroa's Blossom pattern from her book, With Fabric and Thread. (available here)
For my yellow fabric I chose the Moda Bella Solid 30's Yellow, 9900-23. It's just the yellow I wanted, a very pretty happy sunny yellow, not a bright lemon yellow or pale weak yellow.
The pattern calls for 9 blocks, all the same color.
I decided to reverse the fabric for my center block.
After the bold colors of my flowering snowball quilt, and the hectic week in Paducah, I was ready for a calm project, in color and difficulty.
This is Lifetime Quilt Number 156
The pattern is Blossom from Joanna Figueroa's book With Fabric and Thread
The fabric is Moda Bella Solid 9900-23, 30's Yellow and 9900-28 Bleached White
It finished at 84" x 84"
It has approximately 606 pieces.
