Towards the end of last year I participated in the Tula Pink Charm Swap run by the fabulous Ms Midge.
OMG!!! They are so pretty!
After each Charm Swap there is a Charm Along!
And here is my contribution :It’s only the top right now, but I have a backing in the works and will keep going til it’s done – I’m determined not to add it to my UFO pile π
It is 49″ x 74″ { 125cm x 188cm}
It would make a gorgeous single bed quilt but since I don’t have a single bed to use it on, {except the boys and they won’t part with their Batman quilts for a girly one! haha} I think it’ll make a nice sized throw or couch quilt for meeeee!.
I am also pledging to get cracking on the aforementioned UFO pile! There are a couple of half {or more} done pieces, so I am going to keep plodding along and get some finished soon π
I’ll endeavour to get my holiday pics up soon – we had a fantastic time staying at Manly Beach, Sydney!! And hubby was very surprised π
Hope you have a fantabulous day!
Happy Birthday Kate. Your quilt will be a beautiful to snuggle in. Love all of the Tula quilts.
Thank you Lynn!! β€
Gorgeous quilt top! And my birthday was yesterday! Happy birthday, glad to see you back. I’ll be down in Manly myself for a couple of days around 9-11 February, so I’ll send it your love…
Thank you!
Awww Happy Birthday for yesterday!! Hope you had a fab day β€
My co-worker's birthday was yesterday too, and we are same year too so almost twins! {If you turned 41 too we can be almost triplets! haha}
Manly was spoectacular! I would go back in a heartbeat! Enjoy your trip! π
Happy Birthday to you! And what a gorgeous quilt i love the lightness of it.. c
Thanks Celi! π
Hello Kate, I am very new to quilting and just LOVE this pattern and colors. I was wondering if you have any info on the fabrics you used? The way they flow into one another is wonderful, I would love to put this on my to do list. I also knit and make stained glass and I have UFO piles for both of them. I hope one day to have one for my quilting. Ha ha Thanks for your time, Diana
Hi Diana!
Thanks for your kind words! Welcome to the addictive world of quilting haha
These fabrics are from all of Tula Pink’s fabric lines. {I took part in a Charm Swap where 56 of us sent in 2 different meters of Tula Pink fabrics cut into 5″ squares and the organizer, Ms Midge sent us all 112 different charm squares back} I just made them into HSTs and played round with them til I was happy with the flow π
You could acheive a similar mix of her fabrics by getting charm packs from her different lines … Good luck, hope you have fun with your new hobby!
I would love to get a swap going of Tula pink, or I have Amy butler to trade for Tula pink
Do you know of any..,I am in us

Hiya! π
I don’t know of any Tula swaps in the US, I’m in Australia, as is Ms Midge who organised the one I was in. Perhaps ask around on some US quilting blogs? Or if you are part of a few quilting groups you could even organise a swap between you or ask around for interest on the group pages/blogs?
Good luck!! π
Hi, love the quilt ! Where can I find the pattern?
Hi Janel, Thanks!
I didn’t use a pattern, I just sewed them all into HSTs and shuffled them round til I liked the colours π
Congrats on being featured over on Instagram (@southernfabric). Gorgeous quilt! Just wondering what fabric the background grey is? Thanks. x
Hi Erin, I still use this solid, but it doesnβt have a selvedge so I will look for an old docket to find the name and get back to you βΊοΈ Kate xo
