Lulu quilt

I enter contests sometimes on Instagram, and this time I won!

I won bigtime!!!

I won this pattern by Gigi's Thimble which is made with a jelly roll.

As a bonus, Stephanie @stuphfromsteph gave the generous offer of machine quilting the quilt top :)

Steph even said that she would pay for the return shipping.

I had a jelly roll I was saving for a special project.

Sew Cherry, Lori Holt's first fabric line!

It's my favorite ever!!!

I got busy cut the jelly roll up and went crazy chain piecing.

I had to take a photo of the process, the fabric is so beautiful and so colorful.

I finished sewing all my blocks, 16 of them in all.

To make sure the low volumes and bright colors were evenly placed, I took a tonal photograph.

It looks good to me :)

Here are all the blocks laid out, with the borders, before I sewed them together.
I had to add a few extra pieces, but made sure that they were all designed by Lori Holt.
I don't know if you can spot them...

Yay, I finished my quilt top, I love the explosion of color.

I can hardly wait to get my quilt in the mail.

I'll show it to you when it's quilted and bound :)
