Ma Maison at the Moda Bake Shop

EDITED:  It seems like the tutorial has not posted on the Moda Bake Shop yet due to a scheduling error.  Once the tutorial is published on the MBS, I will link to it from here.

I am very excited to have another Moda Bake Shop tutorial posted today, please hop over and check out Ma Maison. Thank you to all who are visiting from the Bake Shop!



My goal for this pattern was to expand off of my Brick Border pattern that was part of the Trifle Quilt-a-long at the Moda Bake Shop.  I made a lap sized quilt using one jelly roll of the Petite Prints Deux collection by French General (along with some background yardage). This is a very beginner friendly pattern which comes together very quickly with almost no seam matching.

I had a lot of fun quilting this quilt.  I used a meandering feather in the sashing and a diagonal cross-hatch pattern in the brick rows.  



I had originally called this pattern Yellow Brick Road, but then discovered that was already the name of a very popular pattern.  Many thanks to Stephanie of Late Night Quilter who suggested the new name of Ma Maison.  I also want to thank Paige of Quilted Blooms for reviewing and helping to improve the pattern so much.

One of things I love best about quilt design is playing with the effect of color and fabric have on the overall look to the quilt. Here is Ma Maison rendered in three different popular Moda collections.


Ma Maison in Hello Darling by Bonnie and Camille (I love this collection!)


Ma Maison in Tucker Prairie by One Canoe Two


A holiday version of Ma Maison in Winterberry by Kate and Birdie

This quilt is going to be gifted to a co-worker who has had a tough year heath and family-wise.  I think that quilts are hugs made of fabric and I hope that my co-worker feels my hug when she gets this.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

  26. There is something very soothing about the way the lines break up the bricks in this pattern. I can imagine it sewn up with color modulated strips too. Really lovely, and very fun to see the other mock ups. Congrats!

  27. Love seeing how it looks in different fabrics. Different colors of sashing would probably change it up too. It looks like a great, fun pattern.
