Improv Blog Hop: Day 5

Here comes inspiration! You've seen what Amy Friend has made with her new Improv fabric collection; for the rest of the week we have five bloggers sharing what they've made with these fun, modern fabrics. This is the last day of our blog hop; check out the schedule at the bottom of the post to see the other four days and find more projects made with Improv! (And if you missed our original interview with Amy, find it here.)

Today, AnneMarie from Gen X Quilters is here, sharing her version of hoop quilting using Improv. Totally different from Nichole's, and equally beautiful and oh-so-appealing! (Yes, that is a pieced center you see in this sneak peek photo!)

Here's AnneMarie:

"Improv's palette shows such calm and gentleness with modern prints.  It's a contrast from so many modern fabrics that scream at you with intensity.  I love tone-on-tone or tone-and-white prints, they are so versatile in quilting projects.  I've been sewing up a storm of Hoop Quilts this year, and of course, I wanted to make one with Improv."

Head over to her blog to see her entire hoop project!

For a chance to win a bundle of Improv fabric, leave a comment here on the blog telling us if you've ever done hoop embroidery work. Giveaway is open through Monday, July 16th at 11:59 pm EDT.
