I had the opportunity to stitch up this springy tulip quilt for Cloud 9 Fabrics to hang in their booth at Quilt Market.  It's called the Amsterdam Quilt, and you can find the free pattern for the quilt on the Cloud 9 website now!

 
I can't take credit for the cute tulip design, Michelle Engel Bencsko designed it, I just figured out the math and sewed it all together.   I got to use the beautiful new fabric line from Eloise Renouf, called Shape of Spring, which is shipping to stores this month!  I love the colors and patterns in this line!





I used my favorite wavy quilting method for the quilting, which took forever since I quilted the lines so close together, but it is always worth the extra time in the end.

My dog is funny and loves modeling with quilts, even though he usually avoids the camera at all costs.  This one was no exception!  

Thanks Cloud 9 Fabrics for the opportunity, I had fun making this quilt!  Can't wait to see the other Amsterdam Quilts made with this pattern!
