Quilting Blog Hop: Tiki Punch Fabric Line and Small Projects

January 8, 2021January 11, 2021 76 comments

Hi friends!

Welcome to the Tiki Punch Project and Blog Hop! I am so excited to share more with you about the Tiki Punch fabric line and my projects! And to share a super giveaway with you!

Top US quilting blog and shop, Seams Like a Dream Quilt Designs, shares quilts made with Tiki Punch fabrics and a giveaway!

The Tiki Punch fabric line

The Tiki Punch fabric line was designed for me by Kathy Engle of Island Batik. The motifs are full of flowers and leaves of different shapes. The line is a mix of golds, yellows, reds, magenta, greens, purple, aqua… colors that remind one of summer, the beach, the tiki hut where you get your drink with the little umbrella in it…

Turn your face to the sun and relax; breath deep and watch the waves lap up on the shore, the leaves on the palm trees sway gently with the light breeze that dances across the sand.

That’s the mood! Now for the fun projects!

The Tiki Punch Projects

I designed so many projects to work with the Tiki Punch fabric line. If you have been following along on the blog, I have been sharing them, one by one, over the last couple of months. Here they are:

Tropical Breeze

Tropical Breeze plays up the wonderful leaf shape that just says the tropics!

The pattern has this wonderful lap quilt with different size leaves…

This wall quilt that just adds a touch of the tropics to any room. Or you could use it as a table topper.

There are also placemats and a table runner in the pattern!

Tropical Moon

This quilt is one of my 2 new modern drunkard’s path quilts. It is fat quarter friendly and has 3 sizes in the pattern- crib, youth and lap.

Top US quilting blog and shop, Seams Like a Dream Quilt Designs, shares quilts made with Tiki Punch fabrics and a giveaway!

This quilt inspired me to explore the best way to cut and sew drunkard’s path blocks. And I found a way to sew them that works for me!

I will be sharing a tutorial on YouTube soon!

And I created a template to cut these blocks and show how to cut them different sizes using the same templates. the handout with the templates includes a free pattern for a table runner.

Tropical Sky

The quilt was my take on an old fashion row quilt- well I guess a column quilt! I love how the star blocks look on point.

With the all the blocks just showcasing some of the super fun fabrics in the line, it is an easy to put together quilt!

Tropical Sunset

This has to be one of my favorites from this collection. A few things I love about are that it is fat quarter friendly and it pieces together quickly.

And for those who like appliqué, there is the optional addition of these fun flowers!

Tropical Terrace

when I was planning my projects, I really wanted a quilt that would show off the versatility of my Braid Template.

Top US quilting blog and shop, Seams Like a Dream Quilt Designs, shares quilts made with Tiki Punch fabrics and a giveaway!

Most of my braid projects use braids in one size. So what about a quilt using braids of different sizes?

Don’t you love that purple??

Tiger Lily

Tiger Lily is one of my more popular patterns. It is a strip friendly quilt. And I love using it to show off different fabric lines.

This quilt is a one block wonder- change the look by rotating the blocks and changing the look of the setting!

My favorite quilt of yours is a tie between Tropical Breeze as I can see those placemats in my home and Tropical Terrace as I love the scrappy braids set in purple . Too difficult to chose just one! Congratulations on your continued success!

    Lots of inspiration and colorful projects that reminds me of a tropical island like the name of the fabric line . Much needed eye candy for people in cold weather areas that can only dream of a real escape this year.
    I appreciate the close up photography of the thread on the applique and thicker thread stitching. Well done.
