Choosing Fabrics for Your Buzzing Gnomes Quilt
One of my favorite things about designing quilts is choosing fabrics and figuring out how different prints and colors will work together!
Buzzing Gnomes is a wonderful design for using a variety of fabrics from your stash. Rather than choosing just one or two prints, have fun mixing different colors, patterns, and textures to give each gnome its own personality.
Look for playful prints, small-scale florals, dots, and interesting background fabrics. You can use a coordinated fabric collection for a more traditional look or pull together a completely scrappy combination for something a little more whimsical.
Don’t be afraid to experiment with color! Sometimes the most unexpected fabric combinations create the most interesting quilts.
