Amberlight II Quilt Tutorial

You may recall the Amberlight quilt I made in the fall. Well, when I designed that quilt, I had two different block and layout options that were difficult to choose between. So now I’ve made them both! Introducing Amberlight II, the springy sister to the original. 😉

The fabric I chose for this version is called Homage by my friend Fran Gulick of Cotton and Joy for Riley Blake Designs. I LOVE the bright and cheery colors in this collection! It screams spring to me.

I’m so happy to have this second option that’s been floating around in my head finally put into fabric. I hope to have it quilted up soon and will share more photos then as well.

My longarm had a MAJOR malfunction (smoke was coming out of her and everything!!). But thankfully she’s now been fixed and is ready for me to get back to quilting. If only my day job weren’t so busy at the moment as well, I could get my back log quilted up!

And here’s a peek into how I organize the fabrics once they are cut and I start planning/piecing my blocks. Such lovely little piles of fabric
