Rosa is a quilt made with a fat quarter bundle I had had for quite a while--Rosa by Crystal Manning. When I saw that Riley Blake Designs was doing a block challenge, it seemed like a good fit--a block once a week using this beautiful line of fabric.
It should be noted that I am notoriously unreliable when it comes to any kind of sew along. I rarely keep up, and sometimes I don't even begin the sew along until it has been completed for months. However, this time around I kept up weekly.
The fabric was so pretty and both colorways, the blue and pink, played very well together.

I added some cute selvages in a couple of places.
When it came time to do the setting blocks, I chose the layout using Irish chain blocks. I had a very pale pink solid in my stash and decided I liked the look of very subtle blocks, allowing all the pieced blocks to shine.
It's a long quilt, and therefore, kind of hard to photograph. In retrospect, I might have left off the top and bottom rows. But no matter--I hope to find a pink lover and this will be a nice quilt to snuggle with.
Beautiful quilting:
