Fabric Palette Friday #5: Cool Solids

Happy Fabric Palette Friday (errr, Saturday. Sorry I’m a bit late this weekend.)! This week is a return to solids. This bundle found its way into my cart when I perusing Cottoneer Fabrics one day. I wasn’t even trying to put anything specific together and was trying to flesh out my solids collection with some new Art Gallery colors that I just loved. But when I saw them side by side in the cart, I knew they were destined to be together in a quilt.

Soon after, they found their way into one of the test quilts for my Folded in Love pattern. As you can see, I made a few changes to the pattern after this one, including making that center triangle smaller (proportional with the stripes), but I admit I still love this version. The solids are Art Gallery Pure Solids in Sweet Fig, Dragon Fruit, Ocean Waves, Crystalline, and Night Sea (background). I used Dragon Fruit for the pop of color on the binding as well.

The beautiful quilting was done by my wonderful longarmer, Lilo Whitener-Fey of Trace Creek Quilting. The pattern is called Behold.
