I can’t believe we’ve made it to the finish of the Riley Blake Designs Block Challenge! It has been so much fun sewing along each week and seeing all the beautiful block designs come together into one quilt. I’m so excited to finally share my finished quilt!
I followed the finishing pattern just as written, and I absolutely love how everything came together. The mix of blocks paired with the bold sashing gives the quilt such a fun, classic feel, and it was so rewarding seeing all those weekly blocks become one finished project.
For my quilt, I used Riley Blake Designs basics throughout and had so much fun putting together this sweet vintage-inspired palette. I used Dainty Daisy Vintage Pastels on Cloud for the background, which gives the quilt such a soft and pretty feel. The backing is Dainty Daisy Songbird, and I finished it off with Dapple Dot Marsala binding for a rich pop of color around the edge.
I also had this quilted on my longarm using the Frolic quilting design from Sew Shabby Quilting, and I love the extra texture it adds to the finished quilt!
A huge thank you to Riley Blake Designs for putting together such a fun sew along every year. I’ve loved sewing along, and I can’t wait to see everyone’s finished quilts, too!
Be sure to share your quilt in the Facebook group — I always love seeing your fabric choices and finished projects!
