Today's the first day of the new school year! The kids were so excited and happy. For the first time ever, we're all equally ready to get back to a routine after a very fun, adventure-filled Summer!
You can see them all smiles this morning over on my Instagram, our 7th, 6th, and 3rd graders! As for me, it's always bittersweet and it helps for me to keep extra busy these first few days.
Enter Artisan, the beautiful new collection by designer Pat Bravo for Art Gallery Fabrics!

For the past couple of weeks I've been working with these gorgeous fabrics behind the scenes, creating a somewhat complex quilt design full of tiny patchwork squares, I'll share more on that next month. Since I haven't quite had my fill of Artisan just yet and because it's impossible for me to wait that long to share something made with these wonderful fabrics, I thought it would be fun to design a quick sew. A quilt that's simple to make, but still allows each unique Artisan print to shine!

Just an easy strip pieced pattern, alternating rectangle striped blocks with herringbone blocks. A straightforward pattern that creates such an eye-catching, bohemian style quilt!
I especially love the colors. It reminds me of a clear blue sky on a warm Fall day!

The perfect complement to these changing days and the season that's upon us. I should have it finished just in time!
