Guest FQ Pack Designer ~ Rashida Coleman-Hale
Our Fat Quarter Pack Designer Series continues today with Rashida Coleman-Hale! We’ve had a long-time love for everything Rashida creates at i heart linen. Rashida finds the perfect fabric combinations for her irresistible patchwork, and she does it all with contagious humor and good cheer. Her sewing is impeccable and fun; there’s a bright, inspiring glimpse in every visit to i heart linen. Have you seen her pincushions and this amazing checkerboard? We also continue to pour over our copies of her recent book, I Love Patchwork: 21 Irresistible Zakka Projects to Sew, chock full of great new designs and inspiration. In fact, Rashida’s knack for fabric helped inspire our fall site redesign which incorporates Rashida’s favorite pops of yellow and linen.
(On a personal note, we all are sending our good thoughts to Rashida and her family as they wait to bring home their beautiful new baby, Matthew.)
From Rashida:
- I wanted to put something together that had a vintage sort of feel to it. When I saw the Vintage Pillowcase Spring print I fell in love and knew this was the perfect print (It reminds me of my grandma’s house when I was little)! Blues, yellows and greens are my absolute favorite colors and I have to force myself to choose other colors most of the time. I just couldn’t resist choosing these colors again. I’m quite ready for Spring as I’m sure the rest of you are, so the floral prints are making me especially happy right now.
The fabrics:
- First Row
- Church Flowers Blue ~ Nicey Jane
- Diamond Dot Yellow ~ Dresden Plate
- Gemstone Sapphire ~ Leanika
- Second Row
- Hop Dot Olive – Nicey Jane
- Vintage Pillowcase Spring ~ Vera’s Garden
- Pastry Line Saffron ~ Little Folks Dobby
The Rashida Coleman-Hale Mix Fat Quarter Packs are available in the shop. Buy your own bit of Spring with Rashida’s beautiful combination of prints.

Such pretty choices! I need to make myself the ultimate mom “not quite a purse, not quite a diaper bag,” and these fabrics would be awesome!
I’d make an adorable little baby quilt with random sized circles on a clean white background.
OOHH that is though but I know a few of them would go really well with my baby room. Maybe some pillows, a quilt, lampshade? Maybe all of the above.
They are beautiful prints, and I’d have a hand at putting together a quilt for my little girl.
What a beautiful set of fabrics! I would love to make a spring quilt for my daughter or some place mats for our dreary dining table! Thanks for the giveaway!
A quilt!! I just bought myself a beginners quilting book and all I need now is some gorgeous fabric. I’m loving the colours in this set!
I’ve just started making lavender scented wheat bags as gifts for the plethora of expectant mums around me. These fresh fabrics would be perfect!
I would make a beach tote and tablecloth for our roll up table, these prints seem perfect for a summer evening dinner at the beach.
I absolutely love yellow and blue for spring. I hope I win!!! I’d like to make a lovely throw for the baby’s room. It may be spring but it can still be chilly while nursing. A heavy blanket is too much, but a nice springy throw would be so fantastic!

I love Rashida’s blog too – and her book is just amazing! I think I’d probably use them in a quilt….
I’ve got Rashida’s book and wanted to make the cosmetics pouch on the weekend but just couldn’t settle on what prints to use. The prints in this FQ pack would work beautifully!
A bright sewing machine cover, like the one in Rashida’s book!

I am going to make a baby quilt for my friend’s new little one. These would be perfect for the quilt!

This is the first collection I have looked at in a while and thought “ME.” Like many sewers, I primarily make for other people, but this just sings “KEEP ME.” I am thinking about redoing my bedroom and this would be a good place to start–maybe the throw? Who knows, but I know I could give it a good home.
They are so beautiful. I would create pillow covers for my kids.
Thanks!

Yellow is definately the color I’ve been gravitating towards lately! Some of those yellows would look so good on my new couch!!

Yellow is so cheerful!
My Sewing room is blue so I can think of all sorts of things to do with this FQ pack, pillow covers, table runners, some sort of valances, and who knows what else. Thanks for the opportunity.

from Germany Hanna
These fabrics are perfect for a little springy brighten up at the house. Some pillows, curtain edging, and cushions – so lovely!
Gorgeous collection! Would whip up some pieced pillow covers for my home with these fabrics..how cheery!
Am I being too selfish if I say that I think I should win this fat quarters pack? LOL! I love all these fabrics and all those blues and greens would look amazing on and around my Irish girls!! And today my youngest Irish lass turns 8 months old! And what would I make? Something for my daughters!
Oh, that is beautiful! I’d make a simple table runner from it to show off the beautiful prints!

Yellows! Blues! Greens! I think I’d have to just sit and stare at and admire those fabrics for awhile before I could possibly cut into them…

I would make a baby quilt for my new grandbaby due in October! Funny how new babies inspire you to go out of the box. The quilt will be my first as is the grandbaby!
Well, I think I’d make a couple of pillowcases. I’d make them like the high end ones at pottery barn and do some crocheting on the ends. I happen to be learning how to do that right now. The colors are just beautiful. Love the fabric, love to own it.
Well, first I’d have to stop drooling over the fabrics long enough to actually makes something. I’d probably put together a lined and pocketed tote, so I could showcase two different fabrics, and probably make a little clutch/coin purse to go in it to use a different fabric
Or maybe a patchwork bulletin board cover so I really could just hang them on the wall and admire them! Or maybe a patchwork ironing board cover for the same excuse …
i would so do a baby quilt! love the colors.
We have a plethora of pregnant friends so right now most of my sewing centres around making bibs, tiny jackets, soft rattles and pretty edgings for burp cloths. I’m also saving up tiny scraps for a string quilt.

i think several of them would go into a green and yellow quilt i have planned! it will be baby blanket sized–in fact, it will act as a new covering for my actual baby blanket, which is worn and awful as only 1980 could be.

You don’t think I’m being overly optimistic about how many projects I can get out of this pack do you???
I would make a patchwork skirt for ME. I’v been making so much for everyone else, pushing my ideas to the back of the table, it’s time to do one for myself.
Definitely something for ME!
A spring tote or a tote bag for my knitting projects… I love them!
I would make lovely pillows for myself and all my sisters to put out on their decks to enjoy all summer long. Beautiful choices!
The colours are so springy! In the one-weather climate I would love to surround myself with the reminders of spring! Would most likely quilt a cushion or two, some coasters or a leaf table runner… Thanks for the chance to win! =)

Have just purchased Shapes, 3-fold vest pattern and am piecing fabrics to create a new fabric to make the vest. This collection would be a wonderful group to piece for the same purpose
I love the pack. The colors are great, and really outside my pink/purple/red comfort zone, which would make them really fun to work with. I’m thinking a doll quilt and a tiered patchwork dress for my blue-eyed beauty. Although picnic blanket sounds great, too. Thanks for the chance, and good wishes for Rashida!
Gorgeous! I would love to use these fabrics in a baby quilt for a friend’s boy due this summer!

These are also my favorite colors to work with and I think I might make a patchwork car seat cover replacement for my daughter’s car seat. She is short for her age and cannot move into a booster seat until she grows a few inches.
I’d make a fun and summery quilt.
Oh, that’d look perfect with a solid green I’ve had ’cause I loved it. I have been watching for something to go with my green in log cabin blocks. Oooo…lovely! Thank you for the chance to win, please, draw “Lucy”. ~

Truly gorgeous — the colours are perfect for this time of year.
