I have always been a huge fan of Jessica Jones and her fabric designs. So when her mother asked if she could share my name with Cloud 9 Fabrics as someone to sew a quilt with Jessica's new fabric line, Typography, I jumped at the chance.
Of course! Soon after, this arrived in the mail.
The colors in this line are so pretty, and I'm a total sucker for all things texty and font-related.
Cloud 9 asked me to make a quilt that was a free pattern available on their website, so I didn't even have to decide what to make. While I had a graphic of what the finished quilt should look like, there was no formal pattern at this point, so I figured it out and made extensive notes.
The block finishes at 14" and is an easy one to make. It involves a simple paper piecing component for the main section that is the body of the exclamation point. Beyond that, the construction is simple and fast.
Next, the quilt top went to Darby Myers for machine quilting.
The black "helvetica" font print was perfect for the binding.
Then it went back to Cloud 9 Fabrics.
