Meadow Quilt progress: Back in August, I went to a workshop with Lizzy House, where she taught how to make her Meadow Quilt pattern. I cut the pieces a while back, and it’s been up on my design wall ever since. I’ve got other projects I want to get working on, so I decided to get this off my design wall by sewing it up!
The Meadow Quilt blocks are a bit tricky - I would say tricker than any other pattern I’ve done so far. It’s hard to get them to lie flat. I think as I sewed together the blocks, I improved a little every time.
It’s certainly not perfect, but I’m happy with the overall effect! I am really glad that I decided to stick to my plan for having colour gradients in solids. I think now you can really see the green gradient from dark to light one way, and the pinks going the opposite way.
Now, I just have to add the dark green (Kona Basil) borders around the outside of the blocks, and the top will be finished!

(Also - If you’re interested, there is a great Crafty Planner podcast interview with Lizzy House where she discusses the Meadow Quilt and why she only teaches it and doesn’t sell the pattern for it.)
Meadow Quilt in progress: Back in August, I took a workshop with Lizzy House hosted by the Ottawa Modern Quilt guild to make her Meadow Quilt.
I haven’t worked on it at all over the last little while, but finally got back to it this week. I finished cutting out all the pieces and did all of the inset circles. Now, it’s just piecing it all together!
I’ve been playing around with the colour layout, but I think I’m finally setting on something. Since the beginning, I wanted to have two colour gradients going on - from dark greens to light greens in the “clovers” and from light pinks to deep pinks in the “flowers” - I hope that once it’s all together, this will be more apparent!
