From This Valley

I finished my Luxe in Bloom Churn Dash! I really like this quilt. I love the colors, the busy-ness, and the prints that you wouldn't think work together, but go together perfectly.

I've decided to name this quilt From This Valley, which is a song by the Civil Wars. This song is one of my favorites. It's also a very significant song for me - it was on repeat for months after my Mom died.

For this quilt I used almost all the prints from Luxe in Bloom by Sarah Watson, and it is pieced in Aurifil 2024. It finishes 80x72. The design is my own, using traditional churn dash blocks.
