WIP Wednesday - Low Volume Edition



I am on my way to making my first all low volume quilt and I have to say I really enjoyed picking out all these fabrics.  They remind me of some kind of candy although I have yet to figure out exactly what (taffy or dinner mints maybe?).  Either way I love the soft colors and the subtleness I think this quilt will have. 

Most of these cuts are 1/8 yard cuts, with a few quarter yard cuts and some stash fabrics mixed in.  I love smaller cuts because I am able to buy a ton of prints without having to pay a fortune.

I am now off to start cutting these up!  More to share soon!

    Oooh... so much lovely low volume. Like that you're working the rainbow trend without it being so bright!
