As I mentioned in my last post, Kona Solid Roll-Ups are a great shortcut to making a Paintbox Quilt. These rolls are pre-cut sets of strips, each from a different colored solid fabric.
Paintbox Quilt-Along
If you haven't checked out the Mod Sampler Quilt-Along Group on Flickr lately, I recommend taking a moment to check it out. The Group now has 390 members and more than 1,000 photos of lovely Mod Samplers. Wow!
I wanted to do a new quilt-along for the new year and, when I saw these Kona Solid Roll-Ups, I knew what it was going to be.
I originally finished this quilt with a darker binding, but it was just way too overpowering. So, I ripped it all out and added a binding of Aiden Linen instead. Natural linen is a little lumpy for binding, but I think it looks good (and appropriately low-key!) with all the bright prints.
