Modern Twist Chimney Sweep Quilt with Flower Market

Today I'm sharing my latest favorite quilt! The gorgeous fabric is Flower Market by Jen Allyson designed for Riley Blake Designs. It was the perfect collection for my Modern Twist Chimney Sweep Quilt!

I do love floral prints so I just loved all the gorgeous florals in Flower Market. I especially love the florals on the black fabric - just stunning. The soft pastel fabrics really shine with the dark black and coral pink fabrics.

I just knew this lovely bundle of Flower Market would match perfectly with my new AccuQuilt GO! Chimney Sweep die - yay!!! Just look at all the lovely Chimney Sweep Blocks! I even put my favorite print on top :)

I love using my GO! Chimney Sweep die because there was NO trimming of the block and NO pins when assembling the block - hooray! This really saved me time as I was sewing 20 Chimney Sweep Blocks.
* I did use pins for the Quilt Assembly Directions so my points would match ;)

Are you ready to make your own Modern Twist Chimney Sweep Quilt with Flower Market?!?!?

Blossom Basics by Riley Blake Designs has become my "go to" background fabric choice for my quilts. It is available in many colors and adds just a bit of extra tiny blossoms instead of a solid for my quilts!

I was so excited when I was able to pick the perfect matching backing fabric: Lori Holt Bee Basics Coral Basic X. The X pattern matches the quilt front so perfectly! Do you just love it when you find the perfecting backing fabric?!?!?! Plus the coral color looks amazing with the black dot binding!

I absolutely love this quilt! This quilt is "so me"! It's a traditional block with a modern twist - floral fabrics - black/white dot binding - used my new AccuQuilt die for cutting - relaxing to sew the blocks with no pins - block pieces are large enough to show the gorgeous fabric! Seriously one of my favorite quilts!!!!

The brand new Flower Market Collection is now available - just look at the beautiful colors stacked so perfectly! What are you going to make with Flower Market???
