The Playroom Quilt pattern is here! This pattern is the second to release in the Sewn Home Series. I love how playful this pattern is without being overly complicated. This is a simple and easy pattern! It's the perfect beginner quilt. Do you recognize that backing? I finally made use of my Itajime Shibori fabrics. Read more about that process here. I have made this quilt four times and every time I am surprised at how fast it comes together. Fun Fact: This pattern was actually the very first one I designed for the series. I knew I wanted it to be called the Playroom Quilt because it reminds me of the stacking blocks we have for the boys in their playroom. I love that you could shift all these blocks around and come up with a different quilt top every time if you wanted to. They create so many fun patterns when they are all together! The blue and white version you see above is the crib size quilt. I have also been using it in the stroller almost every day now that the weather has cooled off. Can I start calling it a Stroller Size instead of Crib or Baby? It really does fit perfectly around both of them in our double Bob. Now this quilt kit will be available soon from Lamb & Loom - but isn't available quite yet. It brings me all the Fall/Winter vibes. I pulled these fabrics knowing I was going to gift this quilt top to my sister in law and her partner for Christmas. As the quilt was coming together I kept thinking... well maybe I should just keep it. I love it so much, but alas it will be getting wrapped and shipped off as a gift. I guess I will just have to make another one for myself. Quilt Kits Available Now: There are so many gorgeous kits available for this quilt. Check out all of these wonderful online quilt shops to purchase the kit after you have purchase the pattern here. ROSIE GIRL QUILTING I love the gold and white, but they are also caring all of these two color versions as kits as well! How will you ever decide?! They would all be beautiful! FABRIC STORK This gorgeous pink and green combo makes me so happy! Check out this quilt kit from Fabric Stork and grab one before they are gone! SALT CITY LANE Pattern Testers: As always - we can't forget about my wonderful pattern testers. I hope these inspire you as much as they inspire me!

This next one is by Christine (@lopolokko) and just take a look at all that color. I love how the vibrant floral balances with the white. It's gorgeous! Look at this additional gold and white combo by Ama @thevibrantpixel. I love how vibrant the gold is against the white. It's giving me all the sunshine vibes!

In this video I show how to do more intricate hand quilting without marking. I get really nervous about marking on my quilts.
