Debbie’s Tumbler Quilts
I have a couple of fun tumbler quilts to share with you!! If I remember right, they were kits from the local quilt shop. Cut and ready to sew together, which is great because all the fabrics go together so well!
How beautiful are these colors and prints together?!?! I love them. If you’re looking for a simple quilt which will show off the fabrics, a tumbler quilt is a great option.
I gave Debbie a few design options and she chose Leafy Bloom by Jess from The Longarm League. It’s such a beautiful design!
I used a golden tan Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 cotton poly blend batting.
For a design like this that is on a horizontal line, I did offset it…which Jess recommends, but I also made the design smaller than the tumblers so that I didn’t have to line the design up perfectly in each row. I think it turned out great.

A good minky swirl, look at that texture!!
Here is another tumbler quilt, with brighter more summery fabrics.
I used my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Threads, which is the perfect white color in my opinion.
I used 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles, which is my favorite 8020 batting I’ve used.
I chose Triplet for the quilting, and it’s a perfect panto with all of these floral fabrics. It’s from Shelly from Ma Tante Quilting panto shop, designed by her mum. It’s a classic and stitches out beautifully. If you don’t have it yet, you should get it!!
Look how sweet Triplet is, and I love the name. So clever!
A couple of more pictures…enjoy!
Look at that fun quilty texture on the minky backing. Love it!!
