Macarons Quilt

This was a fun quilt to work on and I hated to see it finish - I was wallowing in all these pinks and yellows!  Made of 48 macarons, the blocks were simple to make. The fun was in planning the cookie and the filling.

๐Ÿ’ Macarons pattern by Modern Handcraft - Nicole Daksiewicz makes some of my all-time favorite modern quilt patterns.

๐Ÿ’— Fabrics are Pure Solids by Art Gallery Fabrics - Run, don't walk, to their website. I dare you to scroll through these gorgeous solids without buying something!

๐Ÿงต Quilting by Longarmed and Dangerous, who makes all my quilts look good!


                     





I went with the designer's choice of a bright yellow binding. I think it really makes the quilt pop.


I love the modern look and feel of this quilt.


The wavy horizontal quilting lines give this quilt such a modern look.

Quilting thread magically blends throughout the bright colors and the white. How does she do that? :)


Simply yummy!


Even more yummy!


Before I give away a quilt, I like to hang it on my design board for a few days. This one really cheered up my workspace! 


I was thrilled to give this quilt as a birthday gift. Here's the world's best quilt model, my husband, in a swanky New York City restaurant, showing off my gift. We didn't make too much of a scene. :)
