“Plan C” in the larger version from Schnibbles Times Two 
(Carrie’s new book) is officially ready for quilting…I got the piano key borders added yesterday. I heart this quilt…it’s about 77 by 77, a really generous-sized quilt.
The fabrics, Martinique and Park Avenue by Moda are gorgeous…not as grey as they appear in this photo…I love their “vintage” look and feel. And I love the four-patches inside the star blocks…
Another quilt with star blocks…these have pinwheels in the centers. The fabric is Simple Abundance by Bonnie and Camille, and the pattern is “A la Mode” by Camille. By the way…there is a great sneek peek of Bonnie and Camille’s new fabric Bliss here!
I still need to add the outer border, and then this one will be ready for quilting too!
And this is what arrived the other day…Moda by the bolt…so nice to have this on hand! I purchased it from Anna at Thimbleanna who has a new shop here–she specializes in bolts of Moda Bella solids and also will carry some other fun things–and her prices are terrific! Hope you have a wonderful day!
Dianne says
Holy Moley both of these are GORGEOUS!!!!!!! And…thanks for the lead on the bolts of Bella! Fantastic source!
Stephanie says
You know you're a serious quilter when you start puchasing fabric by the bolt! I love Bella Solids. Such pretty projects Sherri.
Thimbleanna says
LOVE those star blocks — and when you combine pinwheels and stars — perfect! Thanks for the shout-out — so glad your fabric arrived safe and sound!

Hi Sherri,
hmmmm…that quilt is beautiful! I can only hope that I'll get my copy of the Schnibbles book soon (pre-ordered it from the local amazon page but nothing happened by now…hmpf!).
You really did the right thing to add some Park Avenue. They complement each outher wonderfully! I think I have found a project to use my fat eighths bundle of Park Ave. in {isn't it great to have moda offer these bundles now, too? Surely I'd love to buy fq bundles but I'm not able to do that for all collections I love…and sometimes LC or JR aren't just enough ;o)}
Are you going to dye the Bella Solid fabric or use it as it is? I hesitated from buying the PFD white b/c I didn't know anything about it despite that you can use it for printing pictures on it…
Cheers, Julia
Suzie says
Both quilts are beautiful! I am very partial to stars patterns. Moda by the bolt, that's a dream come true!!
Alicia says
My schnibbles book is on its way…my copy should arrive on Tuesday!

Gorgeous quilts! I love stars and pinwheels! 🙂
Darlene says
Beautiful quilts, Sherri. I split a bolt of Bella with a friend a little over a year ago – it's long gone and now I need to order a bolt just for me. I buy Kona white and snow white by the bolt, too.
Karen says
These quilts are gorgeous!! Please show again when they are quilted. Great job!!
Sasha says
Oh they are beautiful!!! You know all of us schnibblers should get the book and that'll be next years project- one month in either size!!! I already have two schnibbles to catch up on plus another 5 in various states!!! I think I have an obssession!
Millie says
Your quilts are so pretty and happy looking. I like the bolt of white Moda fabric…a solid white is always so good as a background.
Nedra says
Sherri,
How do you do it all?? With a wedding to plan on top of it. Love the Bella Solids, and to have a whole bolt sounds heavenly.
BTW- Your daughter will be in Bishop Chases' ward, and I talked to his wife Amy (good friend) last night and told her to take good care of the May's when they arrive.
Ginny says
Love the quilt! I buy my moda bella solids from Whittlesfabric.com and they are only $4 yd. They have a nice selection and fast shipping too 🙂
traceyjay says
beautiful Sherri…
I love the movement in the Martinique quilt. I've got one of Camille's patterns to make with Martinique… the Red Velvet; I can't wait! 🙂
Sinta Renee says
I am seeing STARS! Your quilts are gorgeous! Perfect and gorgeous! Love the 3 Sisters fabric and the Thimble Bossoms fabrics, the quilt patterns really show off the fabrics… they look so cozy! I would love to curl up with any of them!
Sandra Henderson says
Don't you just LOVE stars?
I just finished one that is King size w/stars and a piano key border using Prairie Paisley. You really crank out the tops, you are something! Keep on keeping us all inspired! Love the fabric!hmmmm I've got to go get something finished so I can justify ordering it…. 🙂
Nicole says
Ah ha! Maybe Plan C is what I will use for my Martinique fabric! Love how that turned out!

Thelma says
Sherri!
What a wonderful April you've had, between your retreat, classes and productivity, this will be a hard month to top! I've enjoyed reading it all, you are an inspiration to me and many others I"m sure.
But really, when do you go to the grocery store, eat, run errands and such? You must be so organized!! I would like to hide out in your pocket for just a day.
Kate says

Kari says
It goes without saying that your quilts are gorgeous! And they are! But frankly my dear, I think I need some Scarlet, some Sunshine, some Robin's Egg and some Lime. Bella Solids that is! Thanks for the link to Thimbleannas shop!
Abby says
I am so amazed with everything you get done. I love the plan c quilt. I have the book on order and want to shamelessly copy yours to the T. It is one of the most beautiful quilts I've ever seen!
Thanks for all the great quilts and pictures you post. You inspire me to get my butt going!
Love all you've done in Bliss, can't wait to see the final products. Also, thanks for the tip on the Bella Solid bolts. I'll be ordering soon.
