Hello! Today I'm sharing my newest quilt - Tip Top Quilt (pattern here) with the From the Heart Collection designed by Sandy Gervais for Riley Blake Designs. PLUS the collection has an amazing panel so I made the the quilt reversible!!! Here's a peek at the From the Heart Collection.
I really love the red and white prints!!! Making two-tone quilts is so fun!!! I chose to add a touch of pink for the sashing of my Tip Top Quilt so the red and white prints stand out!
I really love making the Tip Top Quilt (pattern here)! It's a favorite of mine as it uses (36) 2.5" strips and 1 yard background fabric PLUS makes a lap size quilt 56.5" x 56.5". The blocks are fun to make as it's totally scrappy and only has the one center seam to match in the entire block.

Cutting instructions that I used to create From the Heart Panel side of my quilt - Be sure to measure your quilt each step BEFORE cutting your borders as yours may vary slightly. CUT to the length of your quilt.
- Panel: Cut 35" x 43.5"
- Inner Border: Cut (2) 2.5" x 43.5" strips (sew to right and left side of panel) and (2) 2.5" x 39" strips (sew to top and bottom of panel)
- Outer Border: Cut (3) 10.5" x WOF strips - sew together - sub cut (2) 10.5" x 47" strips (sew to right and left and side of inner border). Cut (3) 6.5" x WOF strips - sew together - sub cut (2) 6.5" x 59.5".
- From the Heart Panel Quilt measures 59.5" x 59.5". If you are sending your quilt to a long arm quilter - you will need to cut your outer border strips wider to allow for extra backing required by long arm quilters.
From the Heart Collection will be shipping to stores November 2020. It's perfect for Valentine's Day or anytime of the year as we all need more LOVE! Fabric available HERE.
