Happy Friday the 15th! It’s finally that time – I get to share with you my FINISHED quilt from the Barn Star Sampler Quilt Along being run by the Fat Quarter Shop.

I kept up with the blocks each month and I actually finished this gorgeous quilt on time!

Kim Van Etten did the incredible quilting. I adore the swirly design she went with.

All blocks for this quilt feature fabrics from

• Celestial Fabric by Zen Chic for Moda Fabrics
• Birthday Fat Quarter Bundle by Sarah Watts for Ruby Star Society
• Unruly Nature Fat Quarter Bundle by Jen Hewett for Ruby Star Society
• Pietra Fat Quarter Bundle by Giucy Giuce for Andover Fabrics.
• Essex Linen by Robert Kaufman Fabrics

I seriously loved mixing these fabric lines together! I think they all came together really nicely in the end. They blend well enough but are different enough there’s still plenty of interest in the piece.

I used up the larger scraps from the fat quarter packs in the back and then added some other fabric that I had in my stash too to make a super scrappy quilt back.
