I have another quilt finish today! This pattern is A Quilter's Palette, by the lovely Rita of Red Pepper Quilts. This was a fun quilt to make! I loved digging in the scrap bins and building the blocks one at a time. My friend Brianne and I swapped scraps for some of the blocks, which was very helpful!
I don't often use blue or purple in my quilts, but somehow I still have scraps of those colors. I like what they add to this quilt! It feels good to branch out once in awhile.
I did a simple stipple all over in Auriful 2600, which has to be the most perfect thread color ever. I love it because it blends in with everything and it works so well in my Juki.
These blocks are great for fussy cuts. The butterfly block is one of my favorite parts of the whole quilt.
For the backing I used a fabric I had set aside for making a washi dress. I couldn't see myself wearing this color, and I had JUST enough (within inches) to back the quilt. I figured it was meant to be! The binding is the same fabric that I used on my last quilt finish. (The print is Citrus by Another Point of View for Windham fabrics.)
The quilt measures about 48" x 62". This is scrap project #184! This finish brings my WIP list down to 9! I'm quite excited about that!
Speaking of washi dresses....I spent last Saturday sewing up my third dress using that pattern. The fabric is chambray dots in indigo by Robert Kaufman. It makes a lovely garment! I'm fairly certain that this one will get a lot of wear.
How about a giveaway today? If you leave a comment in this post or if you link up today (or both!), your name will be thrown into a virtual hat. I will pick 5 winners that will receive 5 of my PDF patterns of your choice. I'll pick winners on Monday! I know I say it all the time, but I really mean it. Thank you for joining me for finish it up Friday!
I love Finish up Friday and I love giveaways! I may even love you, in a totally non creepy way�� You are so inspiring-that's how I love you.
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness! I love that quilt! How fun that you got to swap scraps with your friend. This would be a perfect pattern for a round robin with friends, I think. Question: how much sleep do you manage to get a day? Or you are a super fast quilter!!!
ReplyDeleteI Love this Quilter's Palette pattern...so beautiful in rainbow colors! and those cute little bees in the same section as the butterfly...love it all!
ReplyDeleteLove the Washi dress. The second time I made the dress, I also used the simpler neckline which made for a simpler project. The dotted fabric is adorable.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt!! I'll be adding that to my list of quilts I want to make.
ReplyDeleteAs always, your finishes are great. I love to read your blog and I hope you continue it for another 5 years (and another after that!).
ReplyDeleteLindastew52@gmail.com
That Washi dress looks perfect. I'm so intimidated by garment sewing, but I feel like maybe I should just put my big girl pants on and jump in!
ReplyDeleteOne of these days I will join in on Finish It Up Friday! I don't have too many WIPs but enough that I could use the motivation. *sigh* When my kids are older I will have plenty of sewing time.
ReplyDeleteI have bins of scraps and the quilt you have featured here would help make a slight dent in them - I just need to get it done! Meanwhile, I am working on my sweet tooth project (and collecting more scraps)......
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt! and....I'm inspired to make a DRESS!
ReplyDeleteWIP down to 9! That's amazing! Seriously. Because you used to have the most WIP that I've ever heard of anyone having!😊 I'd love to win ;)
ReplyDeleteI love how this quilt is so clean and fresh looking! And it's using scraps ... LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your scraps! A wonderful, colourful finish. Thanks for hosting Finish it up Friday each week.
ReplyDeleteI have a dress (or 2)that I NEED to SEW. My current WIP is sunglasses/eyeglasses cases... 😊
ReplyDeleteI am definitely going to steal this quilt idea for my next charity quilt!
ReplyDeleteYou turn your scraps into so many beautiful things. I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! I always look forward to your Friday finishes! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! I always look forward to your Friday finishes! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love your quilt style, the brighter and scrappier the better. The dress is great. I quit garment sewing and moved on to quilting but have been thinking I need to revisit clothes sewing. Keep on blogging. Darlene
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely finish! I love the I spy feel of all those blocks, such fun fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually into the super-scrappy look, but you've pulled it together brilliantly!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 5 years of Finish it up Friday! Your quilt is beautiful and the dress looks so pretty. I'm still a novice at making clothes, but I'd love to make more.
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt, such pretty colours. I couldn't have imagined the backing as a dress, but I adore the blue dress, great to dress up or down.
ReplyDeleteYea for finishing projects! Meggan loved the Washi dress and made herself a washi dress this summer as her 4-H clothing project.
ReplyDeleteYou are an amazing quilter! Thanks for all the inspiration...though I may never finish all that I start
ReplyDeletenice quilt - love the colors
ReplyDeleteLove the dream and really love the quilt!
ReplyDeleteI love your quilt! And I love that it uses scraps by color way. I will have to do something like this soon to use up some of the scraps I have.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is fabulous. I definitely want to make it, and I have the scraps to do so!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is so wonderful with such variety in fabrics. The butterfly caught my eye first.
ReplyDeleteLove seeing what you finish each week it gives me that dose of motivation I need to keep going!
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt.
ReplyDeleteSo enjoy your blog. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary, and I love your quilt!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on five years worth of Finish it Up Fridays! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy five years! Thanks for being my WIP idol!
ReplyDeleteHappy 5th Birthday! It's kind of you to thank bloggers like myself for making use of Finish It Up Friday when really it is you who are providing a great service and resource to the quilt blogging community. Thank you! And congratulations on another great quilt finished too.
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt and the washi dress. I was given the pattern for my birthday and I'm dying to make my first one!
ReplyDeleteAnd congratulations on going for 5 years! :) xx
Love your latest scrappy quilt finish! It's beautiful! Thanks for the opportunity to win one of your AWESOME patterns!
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! Hooray for a single digit WIP list. Hoping to start (and finish) a baby quilt this weekend myself.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great quilt...and thank you for all your wonderful ideas!

What a beautiful quilt you have completed!! I love your fabric scraps!!
ReplyDeleteSusie
congratulations on sticking to a link up for five years. I have loved it as it has also motivated me to finish - something I am traditionally terrible at!. The quilt you have done has inspired me. I am going to pull out my scraps today and sort it into colours. It will be a lot darker but at least it will be another quilt for the orphanage I support. I have always been meaning to make a washi dress but never have. They look so comfy. Thanks for the opportunity to win . karen.schulz@paradise.net.nz
ReplyDeleteI count on being inspired as I read your blog, and the lovely link-ups on Friday. Since you are also a knitter, I find the sock posts extra fun! On my way to knitting my first pair of socks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely quilt! And I just love those washi dresses!! I would like to try my hands at sewing one, but then I'd be afraid of ruining my fabric (I haven't done many clothes before).
ReplyDeleteHappy 5th-aversaary! I don't have a finish today, as I am all packed up for quilt retreat tomorrow! I hope to have several small projects to show next week. Thanks for the chance to win.

ReplyDeleteHappy 5th Blogversary! I was inspired to start my blog after reading yours. I linked up with Friday Finish for the first time on June 7, 2013. I don't always have a finish on Friday but I am always pushing myself to sew toward a link up on Friday.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the linky parties!
Janice@ singreadsew
Thank you!
ReplyDeletei like the washi dress. i'd like to see all of it instead of the little snippet. Awesome one getting down to 9 wips. i just took 7 quilts to get quilted today.
ReplyDelete5 year anniversary - congratulations. I love your Finish it Up Friday blog (your other posts too of course) and I'm sure, like many, it is the highlight of my weekend. I get to sit down, with a coffee, and read what everyone has been doing. Sometimes I have a finish to share too.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so inspirational, and I appreciate the time and effort you make for the quilting community. Thanks so much!!!

ReplyDeleteWow! Five years, such an achievement and SO many finishes. Congratulations and thanks for inspiring us all to finish all those projects we start.

ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use up some stuff scraps. Congrats on five years!
ReplyDeleteI love following your blog. It keeps me inspired and motivated to get at my projects. Thanks for chance at patterns!!
ReplyDeleteI can't decide which I like better....the quilt or the washi dress. The dress fabric really makes it powerful. The quilt looks like lots of FUN.
ReplyDeleteI love reading your blog! It gives me incentive to keeping on working and make my WIP's become finishes!
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt. And if you remember me from the MSQG Spring Workshop in Siren you know I have boxes of those color scraps.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the Friday linkup, it's so much fun and I love seeing everyone's work, including yours!
ReplyDeleteI love how the citrus yellow, orange, and green give the quilt a huge punch of colour. A perfect quilt to take on a summer picnic.
ReplyDeleteI love the intricate simplicity of this quilt. I would have trouble finding so many scraps of different fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI would totally wear that dress, so cute! Thank you for always inspiring me to finish my projects!
ReplyDeleteSuch a colourful quilt. Congrats on reducing your WIP list. I need to get moving on my Washi dress.
ReplyDeleteI finished a couple projects but didn't get a chance to take photos....oops! Even though I didn't have anything to link to, I still come by to visit! I love, love, love that Quilter's palette quilt. I want to make one now!
ReplyDeleteI am starting new blouses for the season and will hopefully finish them quickly
ReplyDeleteI love the blocks of color in that quilt. I made " spools" using strips of color in teeny bands and just love it. I guess it falls into the scrappy category which I favor! I am working on ANOTHER scrap quilt right now. I don't understand why I can make so many scrappiest and have SO much scrap fabric.....
ReplyDeleteTHis is such a lovely quilt! I saw Denise Russell's comment suggesting using this pattern for a round robin among friends. What fun that would be! I intend to bring it up with my quilting buddies. Thanks! cotten.gloria@gmail.cm

ReplyDeleteI really like the washi dress - looks stylish and practical
ReplyDeleteI shared my Millennium quilts today as they also use 25 patch blocks in a color palette style. They are quite different than the ones you shared, yet the basic structure is the same.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt and dress!

ReplyDeleteI love your newest quilt. I have learned so much from you these last 3 years I think it is. I am so much more confident about putting my scraps together and trying to use them up more than I had in the past. I love your Friday linky party. It is something I savor during the week. Thanks for inspiring us. K- likw2x6-apq@yahoo.com

ReplyDeleteI enjoy reading your blog - it has a lot of great ideas and inspiration. Especially love the scrappy ideas, as I have been accumulating a lot of scraps and never know what to do with them.
ReplyDeleteThis has to be one of my favorite scrap quilts; even though each block is a different color, your color choices soothe me! I could spend some quality nap time with your quilt! Thanks for sharing and inspiring 😊

ReplyDeletethank you for the giveaway. your quilt is lovely. the material you used for the backing is so unexpected. love the orange and the dress. the material you choose is classic. wow, quilt definitely was a labor of love.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that 5 years is a long time, but I'm convinced that there is such a thing as blog time, which seems to move at a faster rate than normal time. Congrats on your 5 year anniversary for Finish it up Friday. Congrats on a beautiful finish and on just having 9 WIPs. Definitely cause for celebration.
ReplyDeleteSpringtime in autumn.... beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love your use off all colors in this scrappy quilt....such a happy quilt! I see. You are hooked on the washi dress, too. Have you used the hack for the 3/4 sleeves yet? I have not and wondered how it works out.
ReplyDeleteOhioholman@aol.com
What a soothing toned quilt! Such sweet use of all the colors, and a surprise on the orange backing! Nice job!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on another finish! I REALLY need to work on my WIPs. Thanks for the chance to win :0) shopgirl 7232 at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteThank you for encouraging us to finish it up! for 5 years. More things are finished because of you.
ReplyDeleteI really like your scrappy quilt. I am adding it to my list. I always enjoy your Finish it up Fridays and congratulations on five years!
ReplyDeleteI just love the design of this quilt. What a great way to showcase scraps. I struggle to find lower volume fabrics in my stash, so that's something I'm working on. Thanks for always sharing. It is so motivating!
ReplyDeleteI truly adore this quilt, its so fresh and cheery, as much the fabric mix as the fresh clean design itself.
ReplyDeleteIts a 'happy' quilt somehow if that makes sense lol it simply makes me want to smile!
And the dotty fabric is perfect for the washi dress cum top!
I do like that design very much :)
The quilt is beautiful - great finish!!! The only thing I finished this week was a trip to the beach, could have stayed a while longer :)
ReplyDeleteLove your quilt! And the dress looks like it should be just right for so many things! I really enjoy reading your blog. Keeps me working on my UFOs.
ReplyDeleteCrazy, yes. Five years goes by fast but looking back at five years of posts must feel like such an accomplishment. Congratulations! I love you new little black dress, I can see it getting a lot of use.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your inspiration and keeping your blog so full of inspiration and fun!

This pattern would be a great one for a retreat. Maybe share scraps!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful and so cheerful. I can see how you would have fun working on the individual blocks.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is lovely! What a wonderful way to use up those scraps!

ReplyDeleteI love reading your blog and the Finish-Up Fridays are so inspiring. I try to get some sewing done every day but need to get more WIP's finished. They seem to pile up too quickly. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI love your (and others') Finish It Up Friday posts. Keep them coming!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your never-ending inspiration to sew scrappy!
ReplyDeleteLove the a quilter's palette. I have so many 2.5 squares which I think would be perfect. Getting them into color groups would not be quick.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Love this quilt and the way it uses up scraps.
ReplyDeleteLove this quilt!!!! I ordered the pattern and think I will make it for my 2nd quilt ever! :) Fun!!! Thanks for the giveaway! Karen
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 5 years! One of these days i will post my WIPS. I always want to jump in but just enjoy viewing instead.
ReplyDeleteLove all of your scrap projects and your quilts. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI knew I was saving sorted color scraps for a reason. How much fun is the Quilters Palette quilt. Linda
ReplyDeleteI love your scrappy quilt! It's just so happy looking. cknapp3626(at)sbcglobal (dot)com
ReplyDeleteLove this quilt and Finish Up Friday. I hope someday to have enough different scraps to make something like it.
ReplyDelete👏 You did it! Your WIPs are now in the single digits. I am so impressed. This quilt is such a fun collection of favorite scraps.
ReplyDeleteWow, it looks like you rarely repeated the fabrics with the blocks! Congrats on 5 years for the BEST linky party!
ReplyDeleteAlways love your projects, constantly inspiring me. I sometimes ponder on a scrap for a minute longer and think WWAJ do.....keep or toss? Lol
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is a great scrap quilt project. It gives me some inspiration for all of the 2.5" charms I have been collecting.

ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of a 25 patch and the clear bright colors against the gray. And I love your patterns, too! I get so many great ideas from your blog--thank you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors and pattern :-). Nice way to use up the scraps.
ReplyDeleteI'm off to sort my scraps! :-D
ReplyDeleteLove this quilt cuz it's organized and scrappy! It would be good for a Leader ender project!!!! You are my favorite blogger!
ReplyDeleteI do like this. Very good selection of fabrics and tone. My only finish this week was to actually practice my FMQ skills. I started a class last week and decided I'd better sit down at the machine and just DO IT. I strip pieced some fabric (actually 2 pieces) and did a different design on each panel. I'll turn it into a pillow. I just hate letting any sewing time not produce a functional item.
ReplyDeleteWelldone😄
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt
ReplyDeleteI love the colors. I wish I had a bigger stash to pick from. I've only been quilting for 2 years and I suppose I'll just HAVE to bite the bullet and buy some more fabric...poor me!
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing us your finishes! LOVE!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts and lovely dress. Thanks for your generous giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI think you buried the lead! I love that dress! I have never really been drawn to Washi dresses, maybe because they're often done in girlie fabrics. I love yours, and would wear it out! Great job!
ReplyDeleteYES!!! The perfect pattern to whittle down my 2 1/2" squares. I love it. Thank you for "A Quilter's Palette"
ReplyDeleteLove both your dress and the quilt, Amanda. I'm very interested in the pattern, so thanks for that link.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!

Oh oh you're catching up to me..3 washi dresses in my wardrobe too.

ReplyDeleteI love the pallet quilt. Such a great way to use and organize scraps. I'd be blessed to win one of your patterns. Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteBeth
I think this quilt would be a perfect way to use some scraps. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your quilts and being inspired to do something with my own fabric stash.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all you do with fabric. The dress looks like it would be easy to wear with a shrug on cooler days. I love all your little pieces and use of scraps.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt! I'd love to have so many scraps to work with. I better get making, eh? That washi dress is a great pattern and looks great in that fabric.
ReplyDeleteLovely blog! I just arrived here by chance following some pincushions made of scraps from blog to blog.... going to browse through your older posts and try to learn something new!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is gorgeous! And I love your dress! Little lovely polka dots. And your stippling is getting more and more beautiful with every quilt!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful. Love the colours! Would love to make a washi dress one day :)
ReplyDeleteHappy link anniversary. I don't blog but I follow quite a few regularly. Yours is at the top of my list : )
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is cool, love the colors.
Love your quilts! They are so fun and cheerful and inspires me to use my scraps!
ReplyDeleteLove this finish, and the dress!
ReplyDeleteI love finish it up Friday! Congratulations on five years. It has brought me much joy. I only lurk right now, as I read it while breastfeeding my baby, but I really love seeing what you are able to do each week. Beautiful quilt! And i love the fabric you chose for the dress.
ReplyDeleteThank you for being such an inspiration! I have only 3 WIP's now. I made myself not start any new projects when I counted and found there were 14 WIPs on my shelf! Now I think I need to sort through the scrap bin to make a palette quilt. I think with only 3 WIPs I can be allowed to start a new one since all I have to do that is new is prepare course materials for a Quilting Course I will be teaching! I feel like I earned the right! Hee Hee. Love your Finish it Up Friday's. The giveaways are great, too!

And we probably don't say it anywhere close to enough, but thank YOU for hosting Finish it Friday. It's always a hugh party that brings lots of traffic to our blogs. Plus, it has many opportunities to meet other quilters. So thank you, and please, keep it going! And an extra special thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteGorgeously done! It is just so interesting to look at and see all the different tones of each colour that look so lovely together. Great work!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful Colorful quilt! I really Need to work on my wip
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 5 years! It's obvious from each week's postings - you inspire so many people!
ReplyDeleteI love all those bright colors. Makes me smile. And the washi dress looks fab in that fabric. I would make myself one but I am not great at clothes sewing and the ones on Etsy are very pricey. Wow, oly 9 UFO's left. I need to set that goal for myself. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteHappy 5th anniversary ! Good job on the lastest quilt . I just finished piecing a Hunter's stars quilt top using Deb Tucker's template , fun project to sew.
ReplyDeleteThe colors in your quilt make me smile. I'm inspired to go make a few blocks of my own today!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could get up the courage to make a dress or a cute top. The quilt is lovely, too. I like the butterfly.
ReplyDeleteBon anniversaire ! You quilt is marvellous !
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for sharing !
