I didn’t forget about our Quilting Editions projects. It’s been more than a little crazy around here the last few weeks. Our boys all got haircuts last Monday and I’ll write more about that later.
Our first project is “Strawberry Stroll”. You may use a different applique motif in the medallion center if you have one you wish to use. I don’t have any alternates for you to use and just don’t have time to draw any but you are free to use artistic freedom.
Here’s the design we’re working on right now.
Strawberry Stroll–#1 in the series
Click here to download the supply list/cover sheet.
Get your supplies together and I’ll put our first set of instructions up on 4/27. That will give you almost 2 weeks to find the fabrics you want to use.
I have one set of original fabrics that were used for this pattern. Leave a comment *on this post * about what colors you plan to use for your Strawberry Stroll and if you’re going to use the pattern as is or substitute a different applique center. I’ll use a random number generator to choose someone to receive this set of FQ’s.
Only one comment per reader.

/ April 15, 2013I plan on using colors as similar to yours as I can find…I love it!! I have collected Strawberries for my kitchen for nearly 30 years now—so you know that I am very ‘picky’ about what I like by now. But I truly love this strawberry!!!
Betty C

Helen M Poole
/ April 15, 2013Cheryl, this is great timing,, strawberries will be ripe soon… in Texas that is. I love the color combination that you chose and I believe I should have some close to those colors. The blue really makes that strawberry pop..
You do great designs..
Sandra
/ April 15, 2013I will be using the strawberry as the center medillian. I will be using pinks, reds and ecru with a little green thrown in. Thanks for sharing your designs.
Betty
/ April 15, 2013I will start going thru my stash tomorrow. Thank you
Sherry in NC
/ April 15, 2013I think that I’ll use a different applique and different colors. Something beachy.
Nancy Bell
/ April 15, 2013I like this quilt just the way it is. I would use similar colors and I would use the strawberry in the center.
Pam
/ April 16, 2013What a stunning quilt, can’t wait to try it

/ April 16, 2013I am going to do it as shown..with the strawberry but the fabrics are all cupcakes and sweets treats and a coffee or tea fq as well
Leah Bright

Dawna
/ April 16, 2013Cheryl,
Wonderful design and am looking forward to starting the project.
Cindy A.
/ April 16, 2013I’ll probably use colors very similar to those you’ve chosen. I’ll keep the strawberry center as that was one of my mom’s favorite designs. The wallpaper in her kitchen had strawberries as did her dishes. I used to make crafty things with a strawberry theme to go in her kitchen and den. If only she were still with me to receive this quilt. She’d love it.
Marie
/ April 16, 2013I recently found a bin of fabrics which had a handful of reds. I am thinking that the strawberry may become a pillow for my granddaughter. And I think that the quilt itself may find a dolphin theme for my grandson. In that bin was a ton of blues. Now I just need to find something dolphin for the center. Love the ‘layers’ of borders!
Shirley Pearce
/ April 16, 2013I am using the same color combination and motif as yours. I found it very striking and can’t wait to get the materials together!
Thanks,
Shirley

Donna Rohdenburg
/ April 17, 2013I love the color and design of this project. As the color range is one of my favorites, I should have no problem using my stash. And strawberries are my favorite fruit. I eat them all year long.
Truth
/ April 17, 2013Love it! Am stash diving and will also be doing similar colors. This is a must make for me!
quiltapillow

Anne
/ April 17, 2013I love this! My favorite time of year was the strawberry festival in plant City Fl.
Jean in MN
/ April 17, 2013I’m in! It’s an adorable quilt – and will be fun to make while the snow is melting here. Should be done just about the time Dad’s strawberry plants pop their little heads up. I’ll use similar colors from my stash – maybe a bit more red.
Joanne Maner
/ April 17, 2013I too love the colors you chose and will try to use similar s from my stash. Lovely table topper for summer…can’t wait for the fresh strawberries. Yum!
Nancy Angerer
/ April 17, 2013Definitely red, pink, white, and green. The strawberry is perfect for an early summer wall quilt. Different seasons could be different colors and different centers.
Mary Turner
/ April 17, 2013This quilt is the most beautiful I have ever seen. When I first saw it, it took my breath away. I need to go to the store. What a beauty.
Ruthie Peterburg
/ April 17, 2013Hi Sheryl,
I will most certainly be using the pattern as is, why change something that’s perfect as it is – LOL. I will try and use as near to your fabrics as I have in my stash. Thanks for the opportunity.
Warm hugs,
Ruthie
Ellen B
/ April 17, 2013Strawberry colors, green, yummy reds/pinks, white, black. And definitely making the strawberry center.
Lilliana Arguedas
/ April 17, 2013Me gustan los colores que ha escogido para su proyecto.
susan in florida
/ April 17, 2013i love the color combo you used-everything blended. i have trouble with color & knowing what works well & what does not so some of my quilts do not look as good as others that are more color ssavvy–i am working on it & use my husband to help–he is very color savvy. thank you for sharing this quilt with us. susan h
Sandra
/ April 18, 2013Thank you. I’ve enjoyed all your patterns so far and this one will be no exception.
Joy
/ April 19, 2013I too like the pattern as is. The strawberry makes me wish I had some to eat, delishous looking. I also like the colors you have chosen and will have to shop my stash to see if I can come close.
Mez
/ April 19, 2013It’s the middle of autumn here in my part of the world, but our strawberry plants are still producing fruit. Hmmm… I’m leaning towards country-ish colours. I’d use it as a table topper, and don’t want a “right way up” central motif, so I’d substitute the strawberry for some flowers – maybe strawberry flowers, they are so cute!
Great design, it’s fun with all the borders.
Barbara Stack
/ April 22, 2013OOPS! I didn’t find this until April 22 so I can’t do this But I may make the quilt anyway Barbara in Tx
Marilyn
/ November 9, 2013I made this quilt after the first Romp where I met Sheryl! I absolutely love that quilt. Purchased the fabric pack at that time….
