Villa Rosa Pattern Cards

Last year I purchased a large bundle of Villa Rosa pattern cards at a quilt show.  I spent a little time recently going through the patterns and found some I had forgotten about. I matched a few up with some fabrics from my stash.


The directions are well written and easy to follow. Within a week I had finished two quilts!


I used the Grand Prize pattern to make this spaceship themed quilt. It was a great way to frame the panel. The backing fabric glows in the dark. 



I had a small bundle of some nice modern prints I wanted to use with the Asagail pattern.  It turned out there wasn't enough fabric as required on the pattern card but I did get enough blocks to make a smaller version. Then wouldn't you know it! I was digging through more of my stash and discovered a large chunk of the same fabric line. Of course I found it after I put the borders on. So I did the next best thing, I used it for the back. I chose variegated thread in the quilting which really looks great in the white background. It still turned out to be a decent size for a kid's quilt.
