Rusty is getting pretty good at getting into the photos I’m taking. I think he aproves of the quilt!

Vibrant Joy Quilt 54 x 75
I used a solid black batik from Island Batik for the background, do you remember when I made this same quilt with a white background for my charity quilt? The size of the quilt is 54 x 75.
Vibrant Joy Quilt A Great Scrap Quilt
This is a great scrap quilt or use a fat quarter bundle of coordinating fabrics and a background fabric.
Vibrant Joy Quilt on Full Size Bed
I have the quilt with the lengthwise going across the full size bed.
Hobbs Black Heirloom Batting
I used Hobbs Black Heirloom 80/20 batting. It is nice to be able to use a black batting when the top is black. I have flannel on the back and this will be a warm quilt.
Binding My Quilt
I always sew my binding on by machine and use Wonder Clips to hold the binding in place. I also like to use Tailor Clappers to set the binding when I fold it over.
Learn How to Bind By Machine
I prefer to do my binding by machine and I have a tutorial on how to add binding to your quilt using your sewing machine.
Vibrant Joy Quilt with White Background
In case you missed my post with the background, you can read more about it and see that I first called it Four Square Flight.
Flannel Backing
I just had to share another cute photo of Rusty with the quilt. The backing is a flannel that has been in my stash for at least 6 years.

I love the vibrant joy quilt in black. I have no way to copy a pdf and wish I could have it mailed to me for a paper copy. It is beautiful.
Connie,
Both quilts are beautiful! Can’t wait to see the pattern in Christmas fabrics. Happy 4th of July.
Connie, I hate to tell you this, but none of your pictures came up on your email. Sorry. Sandy
Black or white – both are outstanding.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful quilt designs.
Rusty obviously loves posing with your quilts.
What a neat way of looking at it Reberta!
The drama of the black background and the innocence of the white are beautiful. I like both.
Love both version but REALLY LOVE the black background – stunning! and thank Rusty for giving it that extra pizzazz! Thanks!!!! (Love to see it in other background colors too!)
Rusty is turning into a ham!!
They’re both beautiful. I love seeing them hanging together like that.
Thanks Mary
This quilt is beautiful in black or white and as usual ai love seeing Rusty.
Thanks Lorena!
I thought I would like the white background the best, however seeing the black, I like it better. It shows off the colors and they look more vibrant with the black. The black background also mimics Amish quilts that sometimes have black backgrounds. All told, they are both beautiful.
Rusty is such a good poser & even “smiles” for the camera.
Thanks Beverly, I actually like the black version the best also! I’ll let Rusty know you thought he did a good job!
Well, I definitely like the black version better. Well done!
How wide would it be if you added another vertical row of blocks?
Another row of flying geese would make it 66″ wide, I would probably also add another solid row if I was doing this.
