Quilt made with Full Bloom by Island Batik

I finished up a baby quilt using the beautiful Full Bloom batiks from Island Batik and the Snail’s Trail die from AccuQuilt.

GO! BIG Blog hop

I have enjoyed taking part in the GO! BIG blog hop and I hope you have also enjoyed seeing what everyone has worked on with the new GO! BIG electric cutter. I chose 6 different color of the Full Bloom line and the GO! BIG easily cut them.

If you missed my original blog hop post just click here to see my Downtown Abby quilt. I still can’t say enough good things about this die…….

I then cut 6 layers of muslin for the light fabric in my blocks.

I used Glide thread and a 90 needle for the quilting. I didn’t quilt the batik sections…..I’m still trying to decide if I should or not. I also used the Full Bloom batik for the binding.

    I love making blocks that grow like that. Beautiful looking snails. 🙂

  6. Turned out really nice and colorful! Love your color choices. 🙂

  7. Love this baby quilt and your photos do show how easy this die is making the process. I just finished a large quilt using Eleanor Burns' version (Pigtail has a square instead of 4-patch in center). And I will admit that the cutting sure didn't go this quickly.
    Beautiful quilt!
