Grapefruit Fizz

A little bit sweet and a little bit tart with shades of pink and orange together, this quilt is called Grapefruit Fizz and I just love the way it turned out!

I think the purse strings blocks create such an interesting pattern and secondary pattern when they're all put together, and I definitely see more of these in my future!  


Y'all know me, if there's a polkadot to be had, I will back a quilt with it!  It just so happens that this particular fabric, from the Amy Butler Lotus line goes just perfectly.  How could I resist?



For my newer readers, I made my label using my own method, which you can find HERE.  For the binding, I opted for one of the fabrics already in the quilt.  It's called Boho Stripe from the Wrenly fabric collection.


I have to say that of all of the quilts I've made, this one is definitely near the top in terms of pride in my accomplishment.  This is the only quilt I've ever taken from a sketch to a reality, with a completely original block design.  I really enjoyed that side of the creative process, and it's something I think I'll do again in the future!
