Duomo quilt pattern

 

It's the Duomo quilt pattern release day and I can't be more excited!!!

Ever since I visited the enchanting Duomo in Florence, I knew I had to translate that beauty and all the inspiration into something...and one year later, my Florence fabric collection is almost here as well as the quilt pattern that was inspired with that beautiful marble facade.

 

Here's the mock-up I did in Twin 1, using only 4 prints from the Florence fabric collection, that looks like a meadow garden to me! My plan is to fussy cut the central squares from the Florence (city) print.

And here's the THROW II in same fabrics:

As my Florence fabrics aren't here just yet, I had to use my Wintertale fabric collection, which turned out great, as now I have a beautiful quilt ready to be gifted, just in time for the Holidays. I used flannel backing and can't be more thrilled about this choice!
