{yes i know... lots of new stuff all at once!}
Off the Rail is a modern spin on a traditional favorite.
It features Treasures & Tidbits by Piece O' Cake designs.

I actually designed this quilt long before all of the ones I have shown you over the past few weeks. Back in October at quilt market I showed the design to Becky & Linda of Piece O' Cake and they loved it. They immediately asked me to make it in their new fabric... so of course I said Yes!
The quilt has actually been up on Robert Kaufman's site for a little while & some of you discovered it before I even knew!

The pattern includes directions for 4 sizes.

I used leftover scraps from the front to make a coin strip with my label on the back.

Some outtakes from the cover photo shoots since I know you all enjoy them!
Same location as the cover, but I used a different angle.

That is just too cute!
Again a great pattern that is perfect with the fabric choice! Wow Julie - you are rocking out the patterns!
I love this quilt! Beautiful pattern, beautiful fabrics.
I definitely like this one! I has some great movement to it. I love fence rail type quilts. And it's so cheerful in these fabrics.
I love it! This is one I'll definitely like to try one day! Beautiful job Julie!
Love this quilt!!!
I am in the process of one very similar to this. Glad to know that it works out and looks so good!
I just finished a Noah's Ark youth quilt that I pieced 3 yrs. ago with this same setting. I used plaids, checks and stripes. Rails are around fussy cut animal blocks.
This is beautiful! I have loved all your quilts and this one is o exception!
This is a beautiful quilt, Julie. It would work in so many different fabrics.
Rail fence quilts are so fun to make. I might have to give this a shot.
Please tell me quilting is your full time job...I am starting to feel like a sloth!
Julie, another great one!
I just ordered Hugs&Kisses over the weekend and you release ANOTHER pattern I love !!! NICE , very NICE !!
I will buy this pattern! I really like it. Please let us know the day it is available. Wish I could get it now!
Yay! This one is so fun too. You have certainly been crazy busy. Love it!
I love this quilt! The pattern, the fabric...great job!!!
Awesome quilt!!
I have a question....where do you have your patterns printed??? Just at a local store (aka Walmart, sams club or costo) or a professional place???
Will it be available for pre-order??
Love this Julie! You have been busy lately! Can't wait to meet you at market...you are going, right?!
I love your work! So refreshing. Thanks.
Gorgeous! I believe this is my favorite of your patterns. I look forward to it being on sale!
You are really on a roll Julie! Looks great :)

Great pattern and the fabric is so happy!
How exciting. I really love it! Another one of your patterns to add to my list :) The pic on the steps is so cool! Smiles
Another winner! Love the dimension created by the interlocking blocks. Piece O' Cake's vibrant fabric line "sings spring!"
I just received your new patterns and go on a weeklong retreat at Sandbridge VA on the beach. What a great scheduling I have. I can't decide what to make first and then I see today's quilt and it is fabulous! Love your style.

This is just so cute!!! I want to make one just like it. I'm looking forward to the pattern and fabric becoming available. I think the material is just perfect for this pattern.
I lovely pattern and beautiful quilting! I love the back coin strip!
Love it!! Want it!!! How do I get it?? Are you going to market? Do I ask my local quilt shop to get them? Am I not realizing your store?? I'll look more on your site...
This one is my favorite of all!
I LOVE this Julie!! Perfect fabrics for the design too. I think it's one of my favorites of your patterns.
Agree it is a total winner!
I don't know how you to do Julie. ANOTHER winner in my mind. Love it.
Hi Julie..can you let me know where to get your patterns again? Somehow I lost the email...thank you
Oh, I love this one...too! You are so clever. I have your "Rewind" and "Fast Forward" patterns and am really looking forward to working them up. (I didn't even enter your giveaway, because I knew I had to have them and wasn't going to leave anything to chance.) I'd better get busy, April's almost here.
Beautiful!
I love everything about the quilt - the fabulous design and gorgeous fabrics!
What a bright, cheery line! I love the print with the multi-colored flowers.
I will take either bundle because I will buy the other. I really like this quilt and pattern. I'm on the waiting list at FQS. THANK YOU.
Nice Quilt and I love the fabric, so bright and cherrie
I love the red flowers with the checked blue background. Gorgeous!
This quilt is so cute and fresh. I had trouble deciding on my favorite fabric. The circles/open dots in any colorway (red, green, blue or yellow) are my favorites.
Okay, I just posted to my Facebook account also. Spreading the word on your website and patterns.
Love those yellows... and the pattern is adorable..
I love this!
Wonderful, fresh colors. Love the reds and yellows, and pattern is lovely.
With Spring here I am drawn to the yellows but I can't pick just one. And the whole quilt is amazing and just makes me smile to look at it!
This quilt is so bright. It reminds me of summer. I especially like the big floral in the red, yellow and blue.
Your rail quilt is a very cute pattern and looks fairly easy to do. congratulations!
What a lovely quilt! I love the colors and the style. Just got a message from Fat Quarters and will get the kit once it comes out!
My fave fabric - the blue check with red flowers - (reminds me of Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz for some obscure reason :). Posted this to my FB as well - Heather L.
That is such a beautiful quilt. Gives one some ideas! Thank you so much for sharing!
