Hi I'm Lolly from Birmingham, UK. I've only been quilting for about 3 or 4 years now with only 4 quilt finishes under my belt (and 3 in progress haha). I still consider myself new to quilting but becoming more and more confident in my quilting skills so I signed up for being a tester for this pattern!
I had so much fun stitching the Esra pattern together mainly due to the rainbow that it created and the rainbow of scraps it created also when trimming the blocks!
It was such a quick fun make in the baby quilt size!
The solid fabrics used are from Libs Elliott Phosphor collections and the background fabric Is Zoltar White from Libs Elliott Beguiled collection with the rainbow details on the print, from far away it judt appears white but up close you can see the details which adds to the solids!
Hi, I'm Rebecca from Ireland. I learnt to sew mostly from internet classes and videos and started to quilt in 2018, now I just can't stop!

Here in the quiet mountains of North Carolina, quilting has kept me company over the last couple years. I see everyday no matter what with my fur babies at my feet.
Testing the Ersa quilt was such a treat! The pattern and instructions were so easy to follow, it went together very quickly. I decided to go outside my comfort zone with Tula Pink solids in bright colors and am so happy with the results! I definitely will be making this again and the color choices are endless. Thank you for allowing me to test for you!!

Hi, I'm Kerry - a quilter, longarm quilter and fabric rescuer living in Kent. I'm also a wife to a long suffering carrier of fabric bolts and pawrent to Snoopy a 6 month old miniature sausage dog and Ronnie a 2 year old tabby cat.
I've been making quilts for almost 11 years now and in my 3rd year of being a longarm quilter. I help to run the Great British Quilter Instagram account, am the current website editor for Region 2 of The Quilters Guild, am a proud Pfaff brand ambassador and product tester for Groves, I love to talk about quilting and share my passion to anyone who wants to listen so I'm very grateful to have these wonderful platforms. I recently launched my new website, a very steep learning curve but an achievement I'm proud of, you can sign up to my newsletter Diagnosis Quilter - written by a quilter for quilters and find out more about my workshops, talks and trunk shows.
I made my version of the Ersa Quilt using a range of rainbow scraps and created an ombre effect with the background going from black to white, from some of my favourite designers/collections including Alison Glass, Helen Steele, Ruby Star Society, Moda and Sarah Ashford.

I’m Nicky, contemporary quilter from Essex, UK. I’ve been quilting for 6 years, my first quilts were made for my twin niece and nephew! I love using bright and bold fabrics and creating things that make a statement! When Stacey asked me to pattern test for her I knew I wanted to create a bold rainbow 🌈 so I used my hoarded Libs Elliott that I had been saving for the right project and the Ersa quilt was just that! Being a EPP lover, I’m pushing myself to make more machine pieced quilts, the Ersa pattern is so beautifully well written that it’s perfect even for a beginner or a non confident machine sewer like me.
Hi, I'm Kelly and live in the UK in the south west. I enjoy sewing in my free time and definitely have a bit of a fabric addiction. I loved testing this quilt pattern. It came together really quick and looks so effective. The instructions are fantastic and great for all skill levels. I used my stash of Libs Elliot fabric that I have had for a while I didn’t know what I would use them for but when I saw Stacey’s pattern I knew straight away it would go perfectly. It created a really pretty rainbow version of the Ersa Quilt. I made the lap size and plan to quilt it myself, on my domestic machine. I cannot wait to make this pattern again and use my endless stash to create more!!
Hi, I'm Aislan Hoffman. I really enjoyed testing this pattern. It came out great and was rather quick to put together. I'm @aislanhoffman on Instagram.
I Hope you like all the testers quilts, I do! If you would like to make your own, you can buy the pattern from my Etsy store here.
