Rainbow Tula Pink City Sampler Quilt

Dec 6, 2018


I am so excited to share with you my finished #100blocks100days2018 project - the rainbow Tula Pink City Sampler quilt! This was a long and drawn out process that I have to admit I agonized over a bit too much, lol. 

The color choices for each block took longer than they should have, but I really just wanted everything to be perfect! The full finished quilt (below) was really a labor of love for me. I enjoyed piecing all 100 of those 6" little blocks.

The border for this quilt is Moda Crossweave in Black, one of my favorite deep charcoal fabrics. It has such great texture. Not to mention this beautiful quilted design called "Raindrops on the Pond" done by Quilting by David is one of my favorites I've had put on a quilt ever!

As far as the design layout goes, I let my 10 year old daughter help me place each block and told myself I would NOT agonize over the final layout and just let it be! I Actually really love the way the top came together, it almost has a "burst" design with the rainbow exploding from the top right corner and onto the rest of the quilt, almost in a curved way. Does that make sense? I really love it!

I used a large variety of Kona Solids and prints from Alison Glass, Tula Pink, Lizzy House, Heather Ross and more. Surprisingly, a quilt this size and with so much variety and such small blocks really does not use much of your stash at all. I had plenty to choose from as most blocks can be made with large scraps.

The label is one I printed myself at home using June Tailor Printable Fabric sheets. Each sheet has fusible backing so you can easily iron your creations on to your projects after printing from your Inkjet printer. I was surprised at how crisp and clear they came out.
