I was asked by Lindsey of Pen and Paper Patterns to try the pattern for her Marigold Quilt. I enjoy following her work on Instagram. Her style is so clean and cute, and she is always churning out new patterns.

I love how this pattern uses two sizes of the drunkard's path block to create a super fun flower motif. The applique details in the flower centers are so fun too. Since my Juki only does straight stitch, I had to dig my old Necci out for the zig-zag around the applique. It actually worked! I was so relieved not to have to hand-stitch it. :)

I also quilted this myself, by echoing the flowers. I chose a wool batting to make this quilt extra puffy.

I went with a combination of solids for my version of this quilt. I love how it turned out, but I know from seeing other testers' versions that it looks amazing in some well-chosen prints too. Thanks for asking me to test this adorable pattern, Lindsey! Now I'm just waiting for someone I know to have a little baby girl.
