Wild Soul in Kona solids

April 1, 2025

It's always a joy to revisit this quilt! Wild Soul was the next one to get the Kona treatment - a year long project to recolor our cover samples! We affectionately call this our Candy Hearts quilts - maybe it's the colors, or maybe it's because we were working on it around Valentines Day? Either way, we love the soft pinks, light orange, and overall lovely color scheme of this quilt.

We used the following Kona solids - Foxglove, Blush Pink, Woodrose, Rose, Ballet Slipper, Pink, Carnation, Petal, Primrose, Peony, and Bubble Gum on a white background.

Rebecca pieced this one - so the orange studio cats didn't get a chance to lounge on it...or try and eat the binding!

We love Wild Soul because it's truly easier than it looks. We have it labeled beginner! If you can sew a diagonal line, you can sew this quilt! Clever piecing and forgiving color placement makes this quilt appear far more intricate than it is.

Cait quilted it with a large stipple - it shows up so beautifully on minky, while keeping the quilts loose and drapey. We find ourselves reaching for this color often - Shannon Cuddle 3 in Cedarwood. It seems to go with everything!

I have a feeling that someday, my youngest will try and claim this one as hers. She has stayed very adamant over the years that pink is her favorite color. And you know what? It's mine too. :)

We're so excited to get this sample out and share it with you - just in time for the first signs of spring in Ohio!

Happy sewing!

Rebecca
