It's that time of year again when we quilters get together and admire each other's latest and greatest creations over at the Blogger's Quilt Festival at Amy's Creative Side. Do hop on over and see what goodies are in store for us this spring!
I will keep this post brief as I know you all have many quilts to visit! My contribution to the fun is my quilt made from the Drunkard's Path Quilt Along that I co-hosted last fall along with Kate from Needle and Spatula.
I used a layer cake of Ruby by Bonnie and Camille, along with my Accuquilt Go! Baby cutter to piece the top. Then, after all of those crazy curves, I decided to treat myself to some long-arm quilting by Jenny. I left my baby in her very capable hands and gave her free reign with quilting design. I could not be happier with the result! It is truly stunning, and has transformed the quilt from something good into something spectacular that I will cherish. My other quilts look like poor cousins in comparison. I could get used to this!
The back is a large floral from Bonnie and Camille's Bliss line. Finished quilt is a a nice lap size at 53" by 66". While this quilt is different in style in many ways than my others, it is very "me", and I am happy to say this one is not a gift, I will be keeping it. My new favourite!
Enjoy the festival! Thanks for stopping by!

So pretty!!
Strong contender for 'best longarm quilt'....and the piecing is not bad too ;-)
This quilt is so gorgeous, and I love how the quilting emphasizes the design. If I lived closer to you I'd come over and steal it!!
That is a gorgeous quilt! The quilting is amazing!
The love the layout! And of course the quilting is so wonderful. I don't think I can ever have Jenny quilt for me, because I would become addicted to her lovely work! ;)
Kristie, this is such a pretty, amazing quilt.
This is so beautiful!! Now I really want to make another DP quilt. Love everything about it!!

The top was very pretty on its own but oh, the quilting does just put it over the top!

The quilting is incredible! It highlights your lovely piecing perfectly.

Cute quilt! It turned out really great!
I love it, Kristie!!! So beautiful! It's so fun to see how different our quilts turned out, all the way down to the amazing quilting. It was so nice sharing the DP journey with you :) Hope you have a spectacular weekend!

Love your quilt. One of my favorites! Normally I'm just a looker and not a commenter (have a 3 year old that hates computers) but I had to drop a note on this stunning creation! Job well done!
Everytime I see this quilt it makes me smile. The beauty of it never wears off, I can't imagine what it looks like in person
Very pretty. Great fabrics and love the white as a contrast.
Absolutely Stunning...
Really lovely.
Your quilter did an awesome job, but she also had a great top to work with. All around lovely!
The piecing and quilting are stunning!
Turned out great Kristie! We made a great team for this one! Your piecing was spectacular and oh..so..square ;o)
Thanks Kristie for the reminder to get my quilt linked up! I love your DP and the quilting is beautiful. Perhaps I'll post my DP that I made from your QAL too!

It's so pretty. And you are right about the quilting - it rocks!
Your quilt is stunning. The fabrics are gorgeous and the quilting is really lovely. Well done you!
The drunkards path die has been on my list for a while now and this quilt has helped bump it to the top. I adore the Ruby line and this quilt/quilting are amazing! Good luck!
Beautiful! I love this fabric line and what you've made with it is just stunning.
I wish I had been able to participate in the QAL but I very much enjoy drooling over the resulting quilts created anyway and yours, well, there is everything to love about this baby! A great job with all the piecing and the quilting by Jenny is beautiful.
btw, I've seen your other quilts, they are not poor cousins, maybe just business attire to this one's formalware. -wink-
Wow! The fantastic quilting makes an already gorgeous quilt, even better.
The colors, the setting, the quilting - all gorgeous. Great quilt!
Love the way you used the DPs. Fabulous quilt.
beautiful quilt and quilting is amazing

Wow! The quilting really is spectacular and complements those fabulous curves so well. This is definitely a happy quilt! Makes me want to finish my drunkard's path UFO. :)
Hi Kristie, I found this quilt at Jenny's Doodling Needle (your aunt?). WOW this is one of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen. And I love Bliss too... I didn't think I would ever attempt a Drunkard's Path quilt but this is so stunning, I might just have to think about it... Congratulations on making such a stunningly gorgeous quilt
Wow, that's beautiful and your quilter did an amazing job.
I love all the design lines from Bonnie and Camille and this one lends itself beautifully to this quilt. The pattern works great with it and the backing fabric works great. Love this.
the quilting on this is just amazing! it is beautiful!
It is lovely!! The quilting is stunning, truly. It blows my mind.
The fabric cloth was nice looking. i think it was the hand made. the content in your article was awesome.
