Grow Wild - Ruby Star Society version

This quilt set a record for how long it took to get out of my brain and into reality...and then published for sale! Of course, we moved twice in between starting and finishing it...but it's here!

 

 

This quilt started with an intermediate block from the Wild Soul pattern. I love that by changing something as simple as exchanging background for print, something new emerges.

 

 

I wasn't satisfied with simple crossed sashing, and I personally dislike sewing sashing, so I designed a woven look by constructing the "sashing" within the blocks. Assembly is as simple as sewing blocks together!

 

 

The fabric was a stashed fat quarter bundle of Smol by Kimberly Knight filled out with some other Ruby Star Society scraps.

I backed this version with a pink wide back from Ruby Star Society and bound with a solid from my stash.

 

 

Have you made this quilt yet? Did you enjoy it? Regardless you should try the first in the wild series. Wild Soul is even simpler and just as fun.

 

Happy sewing!
