As quilters we make a lot of quilts over the years. Do you ever make one and say to yourself, "This is my favorite quilt!"? I have with the newest quilt I made. You see I sometimes test patterns for Stephanie of Loft Creations. This quilt pattern is called Confetti. I had the privilege of testing this pattern recently. I will admit that I pretty much copied Stephanie's because I just thought it was so cute.
Last year I participated in a 10"square low volume fabric swap. I had been saving these fabrics for just the right pattern. As you can see this was just the right pattern. Didn't Stephanie create a fun pattern?Here are some close ups of some of the fun fabrics I got in the exchange. Others were given to me and others were in my stash.
This one is really not considered a low volume fabric. If you scroll back up to the finished quilt you will see that I put it in the right hand corner. This fabric is one I bought when Mr. P. and I took a road to trip California in 2012. When I see this fabric it brings back memories of the best trip ever.
Here are some shots of the machine quilting done by Sew Sisters. Thanks Karen!
I know you will want this pattern. So head over to Stephanie's to see how to get one. Her patterns are very well written with great diagrams for those of us who visual.
Now go and do what this little piece of fabrics says! :0) That means go make a quilt!
With Passion,
Carrie P.

What a fun post. I just love your version and all of the fabulous background fabrics you've used. And it became a memory quilt too. Thanks for being an awesome Supreme!
P.S. Really terrific quilting too.
It makes me want low volumes in my stash! It's sure pretty! I like the quilting too! Great movement!
The Confetti quilt is so cute!!! Love the quilting on it!
Ooh I love this one! I have been wanting to try a low volume project... I think it just got moved up the list!
Love it! I made a low volume quilt before I ever heard the term, and I adore it. It just seems cozier.
The low volume fabrics are such fun in this-- they make your focus pieces pop and it just has such a happy, warm look! Love the quilting. :)
I really love your version, Carrie! What cute fabrics and the Route 66 square takes it over the top! The quilting is just perfect!
Cheers!
very pretty and it would be my favorite too... although my husband laughs at me because everytime i pick up one of my quilts and fold it, i say "I think this is my favorite of all the quilts ive made" They are all my favorites for different reasons! lol.
Love the leaf design you quilted! Nicely done. Thanks for showing it.
Hugs
Such soft pretty colors - I can see why it's a new favorite :0)
Sweet:)
I saw Stephanie's post and can't wait to check out her new book. I love your version of Confetti!
Gorgeous...
I love your version as much as Stephanie's. There are some fun fabrics in there. I can see this pattern in so many colour ways.
Such a fun quilt. All the little pieces, but they all are so neat put together.
Had you not shown the close ups I would have never known those fabrics were in there. What fun fabrics and a beautiful quilt!
Smiles,

This is gorgeous! Love the low volume fabrics...time to dig thru my stash! Pinwheels of any kind are my fave...thanks for sharing!
I'm not a low volume type of gal, but this one is a winner. You did great incorporating some fun fabrics. Great quilting pattern too.
That is an awesome quilt. I always think of quilts like that as nap quilts as they are perfect for taking a nap under. Not like I have time to take a nap, but it's nice to pretend. hee,hee,hee.
That is a beautiful pattern. Really love the your fabric choices. =)
Wow! What a great quilt! I love it in the low volume prints. Very beautiful!
Such a pretty soft palette, love your contrast colour for the star points, for want of a better name. I really like the quilting too. Thanks for sharing this.
Love it Carrie!!! Perfect use of your fabrics!! :0)
How did I miss THIS fun post?? I love Stephanie's patterns and this one is no exception. What a great job you did putting it together with all those fun fabrics!
