My amazingly talented quilter Angela Walters also designs fabric! How she finds the time to do it all... well maybe one day she will tell me her secret!
Her newest fabric line is called Legacy.
Angela had a fantastic booth at quilt market that showed off her collection and the inspiration behind it. I personally really enjoyed seeing her sketches and how they developed into fabrics.
Her newest fabric line is called Legacy.
I feel like I've known Angela forever, when in fact I met her three years ago through Tula Pink.

| Angela, Tula, & Julie at Spring 2013 Quilt Market |
Angela had a fantastic booth at quilt market that showed off her collection and the inspiration behind it. I personally really enjoyed seeing her sketches and how they developed into fabrics.
Many of her designs are based on quilting motifs that she uses when she quilts.
Angela even did a few quilting demos in her booth! It was very cool to see a master at work.
I just got my hands on some legacy and I'm excited to make a quilt with it. I'm currently thinking either Tiny Dancer or Day Break.
She quilted her giggles quilt with one of Angela's "Dot to Dot" techniques.
Molly used the Legacy collection to make this awesome oversize floor pillows.

My bee has a block exchange wherein each participant makes a block out of the fabric I would provide for the blocks. Each participant gets to decide which block she wants to make. These exchanges have gone really well and produced some extraordinary quilts. I would use the legacy fabric bundle for this exchange. I think some unique blocks will be created with it.
I think that would be just about the righ amount of fabric for throw pillows in the sun room, and maybe even enough for a coffe table topper!
I think it would be beautiful made up into a Northern Lights quilt.
I would make a ballerina quilt with them!!

Such pretty fabrics, I think I would make a small quilt.
Looking at the fabric and it's curves and waves, some remind me of owl feathers. I just saw a cute pattern for a stuffed whimsy owl so I think I'd like to try them with that. A mix of those fabrics for wings and body would be super cute! The left over fabric would become a read to me pillow. So cute! Thanks for the chance to win.
Love this collection. Just getting back to sewing after too many years. I want to make a whirligig quilt. I think this design would show off the Legacy fabrics really well.
Well since I own almost the entire collection of Jaybird Quilt patterns - this would be a difficult choice. I would have to lay out the fabric on my bed with all of your patterns and take the next three to four hours deciding which one to use!
I'd love to make a lap quilt for me. I don't know which pattern yet. But I love this new fabric line & the colors are fabulous! Thanks for a chance to win! :)

This question is always difficult for me because I am a fabric hoarder er saver until just the right project comes along. BUT since it seems I make mostly bags or quilts I think a simple D9P would be great for this fabric - to display it nicely.
I don't know what I would make until I can hold it and caress it for a while until it tells me what it wants to be.
I would use the Legacy fabric collection to make a Tiny Dancer quilt for a special little girl for her 3rd birthday.

All these Legacy fabrics would go into a zigzag quilt...probably in the Tula Pink style. Here's hoping!
I am loving little "Dresden Plates" right now, so these colors would be scrumptious for a table runner!!! kmfosnaugh@gmail.com
A quilt
one with half square or equilateral triangles
These would look awesome in a pieced tote bag. (i design my own patterns, but do not name them.)
