BRIMMING OVER QUILT KIT

About Kim Diehl’s Design

21232

21248

21162

Created to look like a gathering of favorite prints pulled from your scrap basket, my richly-colored Quiet Grace collection was the inspiration for this Brimming Over sampler-style quilt. And it truly is “brimming over” with patchwork and appliqué motifs long loved by generations of quilters!

Get to Know Kim How do you get inspired when designing fabric?

My favorite quilts are scrappy, so I think about the types of prints, colors, and textures that I would want in a single quilt, and then I set about creating a blend that (I hope) will be the perfect balance.

Do you have pets?

There are three dogs in my pack right now, and two of them are rescue pups that I’m completely in love with. Adopting gives so many animals a much deserved second chance for a happy life.

Have questions about which batting is right for your project? This handy guide can help you find the perfect kind to use in your projects, or help you experiment with confidence! *20% off select batting. Some exclusions apply.

COTTON BATTING Cotton is a soft, breathable, and natural fiber.

It’s machine washable and dryable, has moderate drape, and ages well. It softens and shrinks slightly with washing, giving it a crinkled “lived in” look. Compared to other materials, cotton batting offers the heaviest weight.
