An Alice Caroline Liberty Exclusives Confetti Quilt


These absolutely STUNNING Liberty Fabrics arrived recently thanks to Alice Caroline Fabrics.  They are the latest in their Exclusives Collection and it's true to say that my heart skipped quite a few beats when I opened these beauties.

Alice Caroline, in this latest collection have taken some of these sentimental Liberty favourites and re-coloured them to work so beautifully as one collection showcasing all the colours of the rainbow.

While I could never pick a favourite - an absolute stand out is the Pink Gold Besty with its touches of metallic gold in the flowers - just the icing on the cake.  The Mint Capel would have to be another one I am really in love with.


It actually took me a little while to decide what I was going to make with these Liberty fabrics.  I wanted to showcase the rainbow effect of these fabrics as well as making something that let the prints shine.  I eventually decided to make my Confetti Quilt pattern using this Tana Lawn Nude as the background.  It is the most elegant shade of slight pink that lets the prints stand out.


As I was busy making this Confetti Quilt - my 14year old daughter quickly claimed this one telling me how perfect it would go with her room.  I used each of the prints from the collection to make this and also added two prints from the previous Exclusives collection to make up the required number of prints for the blocks.



With these rainbow colours, I love how well the prints play together and how even the darker prints compliment the pastel coloured prints in these florals.


Whether you are a die hard Liberty lover or new to these, these Exclusives are a must for your stash!



This Liberty Confetti Quilt is now happily on my daughters bed - being already loved and snuggled under.



Happy Quilting

    1. Hi Janet, this quilt is best made using Fat Quarters or Yardage or even scraps - at 5in you are just a bit short for the cutting requirements. Thanks for your message.
