I’m excited to release three new patterns that I created to showcase my new fabric line, Geo Pop which will be shipping to stores in August/September. Just like all of my quilt patterns, they will look great in any fabrics you choose! And they are available in either print or PDF.
Bling – Fat Quarter Friendly

Bling comes in three sizes and is made from 20 fat quarters plus background. I loved the design so much I had to make it twice! The key to color success is choosing a very high contrasting background. I wanted to show off the black and white prints from Geo Pop and I love how they turned out!

It only takes 3 fabrics to create this stunning Optical Illusion! Scroll up and down to watch the lines play tricks on your eyes. Yes, they really are straight!! I’ve made my version using geometric prints in black, white and gray, but I’d love to see this made up in other colors, too! I’ve included instructions for 3 sizes and like all of my patterns, it also includes machine quilting suggestions.
Infrastructure – a Modern Row Quilt

This stunning quilt is a collaboration between me and my very talented friend Heather Black. I sent her digital images of Geo Pop early on and asked her to come up with a fun modern design with straight piecing (rather than the curves she’s well known for). I think she knocked it out of the park with this design while cleverly using every fabric in the line. I love this quilt so much that it will be my next quilt along in September, once the fabrics have been released. I can’t wait!!
Once Geo Pop hits stores later this year, I’ll share more about the making of each quilt. Remember – I’m here to cheer you on every step of the way so that you enjoy making these quilts as much as I did!
I knew when you told us that this pattern was in a quilting magazine, I bought an online copy and made it from fat quarters of Rose Cottage by Clothworks. What a cute simple pattern you made. With the rest of this fabric, I also piece your Baby Bricks pattern. Keep the simple patterns coming and I may be able to make a dent in my 35 year old stash!
Thanks! I’m so glad you like them 🙂 Christa Watson Instagram @christaquilts website/blog: ChristaQuilts.com
I love your new Bling pattern in black. I have made three of your quilts so far and still have some on the waiting list, including Illusion. I guess I will have to add Bling.
