I first met Christa Watson of Christa Quilt's through her blog. Later I met the inspiring industry supporter in person at Quilt Market. She never fails to express genuine interest in helping connect and supporting those new to the business. This year she was one of the Threads of Success presenters, and I can see how she would be a great fit for the new convention. Christa's new fabrics, GeoPop and Gridwork were on full display within her patterns.
First up is String of Pearls.
The Infrastructure Quilt has its own Quilt Along on Christa's blog. Here it is made up in two different fabric styles.
The projects for Christa's vibrant fabrics continued.
Behold the color-changing quilt! Ok, it might actually be two Terrace Tiles quilts.
Lynn and Pam of The Stitch TV, created Dapper using Bowtie blocks and Gridwork fabrics combined with solids.
This one is adorable, but I'm uncertain about the pattern information. Turns out "bee" is a problematic search term among quilting websites (quilting bee, queen bee, quilt bee blocks, etc.).
The Bling Quilt is a fun scrappy design.
Let's take an intermission before I show you around the Benartex Quilt Market booth and have a little giveaway, shall we. I'm offering an Infrastructure pattern, a Sample Pack of Benartex Fall 2019 Fabrics, a fat quarter of Geo Pop, some itty bitty 2" squares of Gridwork, and some mini charms of Geo Pop. Enter using the widget below.

It's no shocker that Christa's corner of the Benartex booth was lovely.
Speaking of the holidays, there was Joy contrasting with summery Choose to Shine by Cherry Guidry.
Mabon by Shelley Cavanna of Cora's Quilts is luscious and deep. The pattern on the left, Apple Blossoms, is completely gorgeous.
What caught your eye in the Benartex booth?

ReplyDeleteFor Benartex’s booth, Christa’s stepping stones quilt is an eye catcher for me as I’m drawn towards simpler lines and I love those pops of color with her Bling Quilt. Though all the eye candy you shared and highlighted is drool worthy, thanks.
I love Nancy Halvorsen's fabric designs.
