“Steps to Tranquility” Quilt Tutorial + Giveaway

Hi everyone!

We hope your Thanksgiving celebrations have so far been memorable and yummier than ever. Today we're very happy to share with you another collaboration we've done with one of the sweetest quilters around, Melissa Corry of Happy Quilting with Melissa.

Back in October she put together this great tutorial for what I thought was a very romantic and modern quilt, titled "Playing the Scales", using our Bijoux fabric collection. This time around she used designs from Legacy, and created another modern design with a very clean style that's easy on the eye and a perfect pairing for this collection–who's fabrics have names like Lineage Aqua, Classic Tiles Mist, and Traces of Stillwater.

Are you feeling relaxed yet? Well don't get too comfortable, because we want you showing excitement to make this quilt and win great quality fabrics!


 

To coincide with her tutorial (and the holiday spirit), we are giving you a chance to win a fat quarter bundle of your favorite Legacy color story.

HOW TO ENTER:

Choose 1 of 2 color stories from Legacy. Which are you most drawn to? Topaz Traditions (top), or Jade Heritage (bottom)? Let us know with a comment below. To get a closer look, you can check out both color stories in detail right here.

    Loving the Jade combo. That Tranquility quilt is simple to sew yet complex looking. I think I would have to pull a couple more pieces from the topaz set and make my quilt a little longer. Bigger is always a good excuse for adding more fabrics. C

    Topaz Traditions reminds me of a winter wonderland. The blues & whites just feel like snowflakes. Glowing, shimmering, beautiful.

    I really am drawn to the Jade Heritage. It’s interesting how they are both very similar, yet when you start to look closer, there is a distinct difference where one definitely appeals more than the other!

    Jade, although both are so lovely. I love the quilt Melissa made, I think she is such a talented quilter. Her patterns are always different from other designers and her tuts are easy to follow. I appreciate that although the designs look complex, she breaks them down into very manageable blocks. Thanks.

    If I were lucky enough to win, I’d choose the Jade — and then buy the Topaz to go with it. They are so graceful, beautiful on their own or together — yes, relaxing!!
