It's me... back again. With another The Taj quilt to share. But really if I'm sharing another that means the pattern must be fun to make right? I mean if I hate a pattern I am going to try to make it the least amount of times as possible. Oh, in case you don't know, The Taj is a modern quilt pattern which uses fat quarters or yardage (depending on what look you are going for). The Taj pattern also has two variations which just adds to the fun.
Today I am excited to share all about my new modern quilt pattern, the Taj! This contemporary, block based quilt pattern comes in two variations and looks great in solid or print fabrics. The Taj uses fat quarters, so it's easy to grab your favorite fabrics and get sewing.
The Stepwell quilt pattern is a modern quilt pattern inspired by the famous stepwells of India and Pakistan. This quilt uses yardage, from two different fabrics, to mimic these incredible ancient structures. The Stepwell quilt is an elegant quilt design with a timeless feel.
Week four here we go! Last week we were to make 5 Red Fort of Agra quilt blocks. But I have a hunch that some of you couldn't stop at 5. These are super hard to stop making once you start. I love seeing how each block comes together a little differently than the last.
Mismatched Stars and Stripes is a modern quilt pattern inspired by one of my favorite holidays, the Fourth of July. This pattern uses the traditional sawtooth star quilt block combined with a mixed up stripe. I love how this quilt design combines the traditional and modern.
All right, I know, another Red Fort of Agra quilt. But seriously guys, this pattern is so fun and easy to make. It's a modern, block based quilt pattern perfect for all those fun fabrics you have lying around. It's especially perfect for any jelly rolls you want to use up, in fact it's my favorite way to make this quilt.
My scrappy Red Fort of Agra modern quilt using Cotton and Steel Fabrics is probably my favorite one... at least so far. Each time I sew this pattern I love that one just as much all the previous. It's such a fast and easy block based quilt pattern.
The Red Fort of Agra was the first modern quilt pattern I designed. For this reason it's always going to hold a special place in my heart. But I also love it because it's fast and great for those who have made a couple quilts and are upgrading their skills behind basic squares. In other words it's perfect for the advanced beginner.
I loved the new colors released this year by Art Gallery Fabrics Pure Solids line. So I decided to use this as my palate to choose from. It was hard to choose the mountain colors, I actually think the middle mountain could be a shade darker. But I am really happy with how it turned out. The colors I chose are reminiscent of a sunset.
The first Lodhi Garden Quilt I made was with solids and the second was with Floral Elements by Art Gallery Fabrics which is a blender fabric. I wanted to make a version that used a variety of fabrics, not just one brand, some blenders, some solids and some patterns. However, I do not have enough scraps to make this happen. I also do not have the ability to match colors to get the hombre look necessary for each flower.
