This quilt is really exciting to share - it is the quilt that you can make as part of the Modern Plus Sampler quiltalong led by Cheryl and Paige! Isn't it gorgeous? It combines a number of blocks from their book, Modern Plus Sign Quilts, arranged in a stunning new layout. There are so many ways you could color this quilt, but Cheryl's careful placement of lights and darks, with dashes of blue-greens, is simply genius.

PIECED BY ERIKA MANNINGHAM-NICKENS, @MODSCRAP // QUILTED BY DARCIE MAIR, @DARCIEMAIR // CUSTOM PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGE BY US

We're back with another quilt by scrap quilting maven, Erika. This gigantic, queen-sized scrappy quilt combines postage stamp squares and bordered rectangles. She expertly mixed these together in warm and cool sections. She backed it with a pop-style print and bound it with an electric yellow. 

Erika sent this quilt to Darcie Mair for longarm quilting. Darcie used a chunky, variegated thread and flow quilted edge to edge swirls, feathers, paisleys, and other curly motifs. This quilt has been machine washed and has a luxuriously soft texture.

Revived Vintage Stars

QUILTED BY AMY GARRO, www.13SPOOLS.com, @13SPOOLS // PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGE 2 BY US

Revived Vintage Stars is baby quilt with scrappy postage stamp blocks, interspersed with simply paper-pieced blocks that make up the navy star pattern. Amy free motion quilted it with a traditional orange peel pattern. She backed it with a lavender Tula Pink print and bound it with a black and white polka dot.

This quilt was inspired by a vintage quilt that Amy found on Pinterest. She tweaked the layout and kept within the vintage feel of the pattern by mixing in 30s style fabrics.
