The "A Lot Going On" Quilt is finished

A few weeks back (or possibly a few months ago - I feel like I say it every time I blog, but time is absolutely flying), I received a bundle of bright and happy fabrics, designed by Ellie Whittaker, to create anything I wanted. These quilting weight cotton fabrics are available at Spotlight stores.

The designs are all bold, quite large and a little bit 80's inspired. Without wanting to cut them up too small and lose their retro magic, I decided on a fairly simple quilt design. I chose fabrics from my stash that worked well in framing the designs and I ended up with my "A Lot Going On" quilt.

It's a decent sized quilt (I haven't measured but guessing it's around 65" x 75"), which I quilted on my big Bernina. Just a simple meandering all-over design in a light cream colour thread.

The quilt design is based on the 'Grandmothers Kitchen Floor' block (available on EQ8) which I then separated and upsized. Each individual block finished at 9".

The quilt assembly is easy to figure out, but let me know in the comments if you'd like a written tutorial.
