I was lucky enough to get to go to Quilt Market a few years ago so I'm feeling a little sad that I wasn't there again to see all the new fabric that's coming out. Fortunately, Amy gives us Blogger's Quilt Festival to inspire us to use all the fabric we do have:-) For my second entry I had to go with my current fave, British Invasion.
The Grave of British Soldiers commemorates the 3 British soldiers who died at the bridge. I pulled a massive pile of fabrics from my stash for this quilt based around a Lecien Flower Sugar bundle I scored at Sample Spree. I love that this uses fabrics by some of my favorite designers... Jennifer Paganelli, Tanya Whelan, Heather Bailey all playing together quite nicely:-)
I actually made this for a friend and it looks totally fab hanging in her house. In some photos from Spring Market I saw Lecien has released an adorable new Flower Sugar collection so I may have to make another one for myself:-)
