Raspberry Fizz

 For my Next Pile of Fabrics:  Kind of like for the Next Trick up my sleeve....

I found a pile of Pinks and Creams. 

I wanted something that would go together fast, and make use of the fact that most of These were Width of Fabrics cuts, just not large cuts.

I have a lot of the Atkinson Design patterns and this book fell off my pile:


In the Middle of it is the Triple Treat pattern, and I said - Hey ! I have made this one before!!!

It was cowboy themed, and I can't find the photo - but I gave it to my Chiropractor!! that was back about 2008 ish! Hmm she may need a new quilt... but I digress...

Back to my Pink and Cream pile - that reminds me of Raspberry Fizz!!!

I started cutting and sorting, and I decided that the Creams -with Raspberry in the center would make Quilt Top Number 1




And the the Raspberries with Cream in the Center would make Quilt top Number 2




And then - last but not least - the leftovers ( in very poor lighting) made a tiny top of their own. I debated between tiny top, and table runner - and decided Tiny Top.


And there you go - One more Pile is Busted!!! 


And as  little side project - my QOV group is making these Framed 9 Patches : Pattern here: https://maryquilts.com/framed-9-patch/


For our January/February block - and I got a few knocked out!!

Always a sweet ride to just see what we can make! I like the pinks and creams--very calm.

Sweet tops and some great blocks.

I like how you used those pinks and creams to make 2 quilts. Plus the little bonus one. Our QOV group was given some fabric and there were a couple of jelly rolls. We've been thinking of doing the Framed 9-patch blocks with the jelly rolls. Great minds do think alike!

Tops number one and two make me think of Macaroons... Yummy! Congratulations on working through another pile. Looks great! :)

Raspberry Fizz is the perfect name for any of those 3 quilts. You've done a great job with them. I have lots of Atkinson design books but not that one. How big are the first two? You get gold stars for busting that pile of fabric!

Good for you to bust another pile of fabric, mine just seem to grow, LOL.

I love that Happy Hour book--so many great scrappy quilt designs! Another scrappy finish for 2023!!! You're on a great scrap roll!!!

Raspberry Fizz is the perfect name for these quilts! Love them!! I love pink and cream together! Thanks so much for linking up with Monday Musings!

Such fun quilts! You are so quick at making them too (or do you secretly have extra hours in your day compared with the rest of us?)

Susan said...

Cute scrap busting! Seems odd to come here and not see r/w/b! LOL Still working slowly on the last one.

Vivian said...

Good for you getting all of those tops done and dusting off a pile of fabric! I am really starting to appreciate those "take a few, make it quick" kind of patterns. I discovered one over the holidays on YouTube that uses Fat Quarters and I think it's going to be my new go-to for quick to make (and/or gift) quilts!

I kept seeing your post featured on other blogs and somehow missed it. LOVE the colors and the name!
