Has anyone made a quilt with Moda's "Hill Country Spring" collection by Sentimental Studios?
I have a jellyroll, a charm pack, and a layer cake and am trying to figure out a good pattern.
Here is a link to a picture of the fabrics.

Am giving thought to a 9 block alternating with snowball block if I can get the fabrics to line up how I want...

I'm thinking that I'm done with precuts for a while after I make this quilt...

Very pretty fabrics! I like them. They will make a beautiful quilt.

PM Eddie and see. He uses alot of Moda and their current lines.

Just an interesting note about this collection....Moda is in Dallas, TX. The "hill country" they are referring to is the area around Austin TX and west/southwest of that area. Known as the Texas Hill Country, it is one of the more geologically interesting and lovely-with-wildflowers parts of the state.

Jan in VA

Yes, and this will be a wedding gift to a good friend from that area in Texas-- She is 50 and getting married for the first time to her high school sweetheart!
So you see, this fabric is perfect! She is planning a spring 2011 wedding and hopefully when the bluebonnets are in bloom! When I saw this collection, I knew I had to get it and make her a quilt...
SO...any ideas for a pattern for a new quilter? I have a couple of jellyroll pattern books but wondered if anyone else had used the fabrics and what they had done with them.

I think the 9 patch/snowball idea would be fabulous with those fabrics - and not too difficult for a 'newbie' I would choose the fabrics for the snowballs first, with perhaps solid/tone on tone corners. Then when you make the 9 patches, use some of the solids in them also.

That will be like sleeping a meadow on a summers day - but without the insects! Lovely.

You could check http://www.modabakeshop.com for some ideas.
They have some nice patterns (free) for all the pre-cuts.

Beautiful fabric! Will *have* to check it out.

OOOooohhhh, you're such an enabler! (At least that's what I'll tell hubby :wink: :lol: )
