photo by Justin Jones Photography Before Vanessa was even born, she was going to quilt shops with her mother. As a child, she and her brothers were surrounded by shelves full of quilting fabric, the constant whir of her mother's Bernina, and piles of patterns ready for mailing. Is it any wonder that she made her first quilt as a teenager? Vanessa never made any plans to follow in her mother's footsteps, but somehow the fates decided differently. When Vanessa was expecting her first child, she started quilting again. She found that creating her baby girl's first quilt was an intoxicating experience--and she couldn't stop! She started a pattern company (Lella Boutique) in 2010 with dozens of patterns published to date. She is author to bestsellers Charm School - 18 Quilts from 5'' Squares and Jelly Filled - 18 Quilts from 2 1/2" Strips (Stash Books). Vanessa has always been drawn to the beautiful fabrics (and precuts) of Moda, and began the joyful experience of designing fabric for them in 2013. In addition to her design work, Vanessa has two active children, Olive and Lorenzo, who also like making things and keep life interesting down in southern Utah.
It's taken me a long time to get this baby bound, but here she is! This is the Moda Blockheads 2 sampler--a free block of the month program from 12 Moda designers including me! Mine's a little crazy with all the juicy colors, reminds me of a fruit cocktail. I used a bunch of my own fabric scraps from collections like Lollipop Garden, Garden Variety, Little Miss Sunshine, Sugar Pie, Nest, Farmer's Daughter, and Olive's Flower Market. Quilting by Marion Bott. It's hard to tell in the photography but the pantograph is wavy groups of lines. I'm not sure the exact name of the panto. Looking great as always, Marion!

Anything really--mix all your collections together and see what you can come up with. Diamond Dust is blogged about here, pattern available as a PDF or printed booklet. SQUARE DANCE This quilt reminds me of the ones I used to see around Grandma's house when I was a child.

SNOW BLOSSOMS An ode to winter and the Nordic snowflake. Blogged about here. Pattern available as a PDF or printed booklet. My first quilt--I made this when I was 14. The center mosaic was a pattern I followed, but I designed the smaller mosaic blocks, and layout. I didn't know what I was doing and pretty much made it up as I went along. I was very ambitious--freemotion quilted it myself, and even embroidered a quote about sunflowers in the outer border. Thank goodness my mother didn't make me pick out my mistakes--I never would have finished, or discovered how much I loved designing. This is where it all began!

Every year, my brothers and I participate in a Christmas gift rotation. This year, I have my little brother, Mikey. I really felt like I needed to do something extra special for him–poor guy lost everything in an apartment fire a couple years ago and is still replacing items. One of those items lost was a quilt my mom made for him. Even though I know there’s no way I can replace the sentiment he felt about that quilt, I thought a new one might be good anyway. Thankfully, I had all year to ponder over what the perfect man-quilt might look like. I was in a stupor most of the year, but finally found inspiration in these yummy yarn-dyed flannels (Primo Plaids for Marcus Fabrics). What is more manly than cozy flannel plaids?! I’m soooo glad my mom told me about them and agreed to send me some of her stash. Last week, I started cutting it all up and piecing it all together. It is the largest quilt I’ve ever made. Let’s just say that I could have happily foregone the basting process. I’m more than relieved it is finished and now a little sad I don’t get to keep it. Do you think Mikey will grant visitation rights? The free pattern is super simple and up on Marcus Fabrics’ website.

There is something sacred about being in the mountains. Walk along the misty trail and fall in love with colors intensified by an overcast sky. In my desert home, much of the earth is framed with rust colored mountains and majestic stone cliffs. Some have been brushed with strokes of charcoal to match the richness of the lava fields. Autumn often arrives late, and if you're lucky, you may get a glimpse of a drying leaf with the lightest dusting of snow. The birds flying through the mist are silent... like me, they feel the reverence of being in such a mesmerizing place. Nature has many kinds of beauty; the Smoke & Rust collection evokes the colors and textures of my beloved home, and is designed for masculine and modern tastes alike. Smoke & Rust by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics, shipping April 2021. The Narrows trail in Zion National Park, December 2019.
