All for Fall Color Option

Spooky Pumpkins Wall Quilt

All for Fall gets a spooky twist when made in Halloween prints from the Eerie Alley collection by SEI for Robert Kaufman. To fashion a festive wall hanging, quilt tester Laura Boehnke re-created only the top portion of the design using fusible appliqué and surrounded it with a 5"-wide (finished) border.

Bright Pickle Dish Wall Quilt

For her high-energy interpretation, quilt tester Laura Boehnke chose prints for the 12 Pickle Dish blocks and the four Lover's Knot blocks that have contrast in both color and scale.

Side Dish Color Option

Broken Dishes Quilt

By swapping crisp solid white for the light floral, quilt tester Laura Boehnke made the Broken Dishes blocks pop in her smaller version of Side Dish. Instead of appliquéing the middle border, Laura selected a novelty print from the Alphabet Soup Girl collection from Riley Blake Designs that stands on its own. By mixing a novelty print with tone-on-tones and a small-scale floral in the outer border, Laura draws the viewer's eye across the quilt top.
