Quilt Along
For the second week, the Fat Eighth Bundle precut, Brazillian quilty blogger Fa of Fa Giandoso made the Fat Eighth Frenzy Quilt using the Little Snippets Fat Eighth Bundle by Bonnie & Camille for Moda Fabrics.
She says, “I worked with 30 blocks so this bundle is perfect! I did 5 different groups (black, aqua, pink, red and green) and each group 6 blocks. The fabrics used in the crosses work really good and is so easy to coordinate. The fabrics are fantastics so is really easy to make a quilt so pretty (the project is super easy and delicious to sew).” Great job Fa!
