75 Fun Fat Quarter Quilts Book Tour & Giveaway

About a year or so ago I was approached by a long time quilt market friend, Roxane. She asked if I wanted to be a part of a fun collaboration that involved making a quilt only from fat quarters. I was so excited...and nervous...but mostly excited! I decided to give it shot. My inspiration came from the basic chevron style quilt (similar to my Chevy quilt). 
Once I finished my first design, I was then challenged to take that design and turn it into 5 (I think?) other designs, using the same block. That was my favorite part of the project, the challenge! I was so excited to take my design and make even more design options from it.

75 Fun Fat-Quarter Quilts is made up of 14 designers who together have made you 75 designs to choose from! The designs vary from the beautiful traditional style to edgy modern designs, allowing lots of options, styles and sizes for you to choose from!
 All of the fabrics used in this quilt are from the Riley Blake solids and basics collections.
This variation of the quilt is a baby size quilt. It comes together rather quickly and makes the perfect baby gift for boys or girls! My sweet nephew will be adopting this one. :)
Keep reading for the best part...
