Just One Charm Pack Blog Hop - Charming Stripes

Have you seen the new book by Cheryl @ Meadow Mist Designs?  Just One Charm Pack Quilts has great projects to use up your precut stash.

Today is Day 6 on the blog hop.  If you haven't been following along, I encourage you to start at Day 1 to see all the great projects.

My project from the book is:  Charming Stripes.


This quilt finishes at 39 x 49 inches and doesn't take a lot of time to piece.


I paired a Benartex charm pack (Hot Basics by the Kanvas Studio) with Kona Kumquat and Silver.


I used three different free-motion quilting motifs:  boxy stipple in the background, wishbone in the orange stripes, and an all-over stipple in the print fabrics.


I used Aurifil thread:  2150 Pumpkin and 2600 Dove.  The colours blended in so well, but they give the quilt great texture.


This is great book, and I encourage you to grab one quickly.  You can get a signed copy from Cheryl's shop.

    The oranges are so good in your version of Charming Stripes!

    Sometimes the simplest things are the most striking! I love the bold use of orange Anja! You are certainly not afraid of colour!

    I love this version of Charming Stripes! The oranges are so bright and colorful and pair so well with the gray background. It looks great with your orange chairs :) Thank you so much for being a part of the hop!
