Beautiful Quilts Made from Gridwork

I’m so excited that my newest fabric, Gridwork will be arriving in stores soon! To get you pumped up for some post holiday sewing, I’m sharing some gorgeous quilts made by my talented friends. Hopefully you’ll be inspired by one of these designs and put them on your “to make” list in the new year!

Whenever Heather Black designs a quilt, she really knocks it out of the park! She’s well-known for amazing modern curved piecing designs and she always makes my fabrics look great!! Check out her her new Why Knot quilt pattern, made from the Citron colorway of Gridwork fabric.

Heather is just as talented designing the machine quilting, too! I love how each section pops with the gorgeous custom quilting.

Here’s a mini-sized version of the same quilt, made from Gridwork in Amethyst:

The simple Gridwork quilting on this version gives it a completely different look, but it’s still very effective, don’t you think? And of course I love that it fits in with the theme of the fabric, too!

Mid Mod by Charisma Horton

I’ve recently gotten to know Charisma Horton online and her work is just fabulous! She has a great eye for modern design and is a prolific long-arm quilter, too. I love this composition that she created from Gridwork, called Mid Mod.

She quilted it with a fun allover geometric motif that I think adds great texture to the quilt without overpowering the pieced design.

Doesn’t Charisma’s quilt look great on the side of this colorful building??

Paintbox by Linda Sullivan of Colourwerx

If you love jelly roll quilts as much as I do – check out the new Colourwerx Paintbox quilt below. It’s made from one “Strip-pie” of Gridwork plus background fabric – easy peazy!!

Gridlocked by Jenifer Dick of Everyday Stitches

This striking design is made from Gridwork fat quarters + background fabric. I love how it shows off the prints and they look great all mixed up together!

    Loved seeing all of the quilts from Grid Work! And also super love your new fabric collection! Thanks again Christa for letting Carl and I create a version of our Paint Box pattern for you!

    I enjoyed seeing the quilting on the quilts made from the pattern Gridwork in Amethyst. I often crosshatch my quilts but I would not have thought of doing that quilting on her pattern. Thanks for keeping us so informed of what your friends are doing!
