Strawberry Jam quilt

 I've had quite a bit of sewing time lately and have been working on a few quilts.  This one is called Strawberry Jam by A Crafty Fox.

I used 12 fat quarters for the strawberries and many more for all of the 2 1/2" squares in red. It really helped to have a design board to lay the blocks on, step back and make sure the color values were correct.

Again, the design wall really helped!


I really love all the low volume fabrics that I pulled from my stash.


I cut out every single square, lol! I pinned the squares at the seams with fine little schoolhouse pins.


I had quite a few low volume squares left, but I know I can use them in other projects.


These are some extra red squares that I had, I used the rest in the quilt.


This quilt is an organized scrappy one, it definitely looks like strawberry jam!


These are my leftover pieces of low volumes and I can always use low volume fabric! My quilt is at my long arm quilters now, I'll show it to you when I get it back and bound. ❤️


See you next week!

I posted about this cute Strawberry quilt I made for my grand daughter Charlotte on her 7th birthday.
You can type Strawberry quilt in the search bar if you want to read about it and see photos :)


I gave it to Charlotte, and she loved it!!!
Her mom says that she carries it around the house with her all the time.


A sleeping angel...she loves the quilt that I made for her :)

Farm Girl Vintage, Strawberry quilt

I made the Scrappy Strawberry block, and my Bees Knees quilting bee helped me make most of the rest of the blocks.
I made an orangey and a pinkish strawberry, and added some blue tops as well as the green ones. 
I wanted the strawberries to pop, so I used a green border instead of a red or pink one.


I signed up for a Jackie Gehring quilt class with your walking foot, on Craftsy.
I learned this machine quilting technique there :)


All the machine quilting was time consuming, but worth it :)


I used a soft pink minky for the back.



I love the look of all of these squares!
I'm so happy that I finished this quilt!
