After I made this quilt top out of fabrics from Anna Maria Horner’s Innocent Crush in the Charmed palette, I couldn’t not make one out of the Swept Away palette. It just felt wrong to leave those other fat quarters just sitting there, you know?
So for this one I went for a bigger quilt, with larger squares of each print to really showcase the gorgeous fabrics. I paired them with a pale pink solid with a little tic tac toe-ish block within each pink solid block.
[This one was inspired by a duvet cover I saw on a commercial one day. Unfortunately I don't have a link for you, since I can't even remember what the commercial was for. Want to know where I've been finding inspiration lately? The TV. Perhaps this means I watch too much of it (hmm...) but I'm often DVRing something just so I can go back, pause it, and get a photo of the TV.]
But anyway, now that I told you about my crazy habits… back to the quilt! I’m looking forward to getting this one finished. It feels so perfectly ‘Autumn’ to me that I feel like I really should get this done before all the leaves are gone…
a little sewing for baby…

Oooh – I love this one Ashley! Love the play on the big blocks (what size are those?) and the small nine patch. So great!
That is one fabulous quilt!
That’s a great design!
Oh my gosh I LOVE this quilt! This is my favorite Innocent Crush quilt yet because it doesn’t divide the fabrics into all tiny portions, but it still has visual interest.
sigh. looooooooooove it. you HAVE to finish this one right away. seriously!
I LOVE IT!!!! How big are each of the blocks?
This is a great pattern.
I think this may be one of my favorite quilt tops you have ever done, which is saying alot because every time you post I say “Oh, now I love that one”. This one is just beautiful!
Gasp! Oh it’s gorgeous! I cannot wait to see it all finished. This might be next on my list to start working on…
Love this quilt! Great design.
I absolutely love this one. It’s one of my favorites you have made. I might have to make one of my own. What a fun design!
This quilt is absolutely gorgeous. I think I’ve found my next project!
Striking colours and shapes, Ashley. Dimensions, please.
I LOVE this design! Hmm… I may have to copy it.
What a beautiful quilt!
What a fantastic way to show off that fabric – it’s beautiful!
Gorgeous! I too, love the pattern! maybe I need to watch more tv!
yikes! i love this! what a great layout for those lovely fabrics!
Love this one! Perfect design.
I love this version!
I love that pattern–great design work!
So very pretty! I love how you come up with how you are going to piece a top together. Brilliant.
I agree with everyone–this is a GREAT design!!
umm. I’m in LOVE with this quilt. seriously.
I love, love, love this quilt top!! The design is wonderful– I am often thinking about how to show off prints using both large and small scale pieces, and this is a great way to do so! I also love the fabric, I wasn’t totally sold on Innocent Crush until I saw this, and now I want to make one myself.
Love the combo of the detailed little rubik’s cubes and the big blocks of colour, great use of the fabric!
This quilt ist great! And it really feels like autumn!
This one is fabulous! A great effect to keep some prints large.
I love this quilt! Innocent Crush is one of my absolute favorites right now and you’ve done such a fantastic job showing it off.
Ohhh, wonderful! Can you do a tutorial for this one too?? I would love to make this!!!
Umm, I think you may have over-shared. You’re a little crazy.
I love the name you chose for this one. Though, I’d venture to guess that the commercial was for downy, not rubik’s cubes.
Beautiful! I say … who cares where the inspiration comes from? It’s every place you could think to look for it
. And it certainly produced one stunning quilt top. I am anticipating seeing other versions, inspired by yours, popping up around the blogosphere to come.
This quilt is beyond wow!! I just love love love it!!!
This is GREAT! Often times I buy a group of FQs and don’t know how to mix in the bigger prints. You did a FABULOUS job!
I’ve got a Crush on this design. Wonderful!!
Wow- great idea… It really shows off the fabric!
Very pretty! Love the design! I have some Bliss coming and this may just be my inspiration for it
I’m more of a traditional quilter, but this design really appeals to me. The colors are yummy too.
Gorgeous quilt top, I can’t wait to see the finished Quilt!!
Hi Ashley: Love this quilt. You’re such an inspiration. Visited S. Burlington in August and discovered Nido. What a great shop.
Rubik’s cube – so clever! Love it.
THIS.IS.AWESOME.!!!!! I love this so much!!!!
This may be my all time favorite FITF quilt!
Love it!
Wow! Just stunning!! Would you consider doing a tutorial on this? Pretty please, with sugar on top?!=)
Great layout Ashley. Beautiful fall colours!

I LOVE this one Ashley!! It’s superb!
Absolutely Beautiful!!
Just lovely. the pale pink sashing is such a perfect twist on my typical go-to white. Inspired, yet again!
I looovve this! Definitely bookmarking it.
This one is a stunner!
I truly L O V E this quilt…simple yet gorgeous!
That is a beautiful design! And the warm palette is gorgeous.
cool design! I like how the framed 9-patches are off-set and with a varying width of borders. Can’t wait to see it all quilted and crinkly!
Oh! Wow! I looove this one!!
This is fabulous! I haven’t gotten my hands on any Innocent Crush yet, but your posts are really getting me excited!
Beautiful! Gorgeous colours, I always love reds and oranges!
Another home-run! Beautiful colors, love it.
Outstanding!
I’m warning you now, I’m going to shamelessly copy this! It’s AWESOME! Love, love, love it!
Stunning!
Ooh, I absolutely LOVE the small rubiks that add visual interest to the quilt. I may have to try something like this one of these days…well, one of next year’s days. =)
my goodness…you hit it with this one. really lovely.
please please PLEASE post a tutorial! i have those fabrics and am scared to cut into them because i need the perfect quilt…this is it!
LOVE this. The tic-tac-toe inserts are perfect… especially because they’re off center.
It’s a cool idea to use scraps and large prints at the same time.

Hi! I would love to make one these, would it be possible to send me the numbers of the small and large squares? I think I could figure it out from there. I just got some parisville and I think it would look super done up this way!!! Thank you soooo much for posting it! Your quilts are such an inspiration!
I am in love with this quilt. I cannot stop thinking about it and how much I would love love love to make one of my own. I often fall for quilts I see on blogs (insert every quilt you have shared) but this is something else. Are you going to post a tutorial? I am new to the blogging world, is it rude to copy a pattern? If not, what are the dimensions of this? You are so talented. This has everything, large & small. Perfect for an AMH line. Thanks for sharing & helping inspire.
