Summer Village, by Laundry Basket Quilts
If you want a break from complicated patterns or want a quick project, this pattern is for you. This wasn’t a kit but I did follow pattern colorway. I did not do all the applique the pattern called for…it looked better to me with just a touch…which is so unlike me…lol.. Applique is turned edge. I made a matching pillow to use up some scraps and spare applique pieces I had made. This is a gift for my neighbor’s daughter who will be moving to her own place…she always gravitated to my colorway quilts throughout my house when she would come visit….so now she’ll have her own.

You always do such gorgeous work and this is no exception. I'm doing a pattern now using her collection of fabrics called Linen Texture II favorites (32 fat eighths) which looks similar to your colorway. I laughed when you said it was a quick project however as "Needle Turn" would take me a century to complete. Kudos to you for an excellent finish. She will be over the moon!

Thank you everyone!
EmiliasNana…. The fabrics used are, also, LBQ…from her basics collection. The colors are her “signature” colors so any one of her collections could produce this pattern. Her Linen collection is yummy. The background fabric is a linen but not hers.
