Verna - Make Life Beautiful

My sister, Susan, sent down some photographs of the sample of Life Is Beautiful that she is stitching for me. We chose the Verna fabrics along with a few other fabrics in green and pink and added a DMC variegated thread.  It looks stunning.

Although this is a quilt as you go quilt, the instructions also include making it the traditional way and adding wadding and backing when you have finished the quilt top.  Susan used the needleturn method to put on the circles and is making her Life Is Beautiful in to a bed runner and long pillow/cushion.

We have received the Verna fabrics and have listed this as both a full kit and as a Block of the Month. The beauty of this pattern as a Block of the Month is that it is based on fat quarters so we are happy to kit it up in any fabrics you like, just let me know and you can have your own custom Life is Beautiful kit, you might even like to use some of the Cottage Garden threads, or if you would rather use fabrics from your stash you can purchase the pattern and transfers only.  I love it, a truly versatile block of the month.
