My little granddaughters, Alayna & Audrey, moved in to their own bedrooms.
They needed some new quilts for their new twin beds.
I'm on it!
They are both very specific about color...
Alayna loves pink.

I quilted in the ditch on both quilts.
Here's the backing of Alayna's - she wanted flowers.
I also made matching pillow cases.
Audrey loves aqua.

They wanted "big" quilts, which translated into adult language is "puffy", so I used polyester batting on both of them.

Audrey wanted birds on the back of hers.
My friend, Carol - from Montana, also used this same pattern to make her gingham quilt.
I honestly never thought of using prints!
It is so darn cute!
I quilted a simple all-over wave pattern on Carol's.
I LOVE her coral binding print.
Gingham seems to be the fun "go-to" quilt these days.
I will certainly be making more.
It's a free download found here from Jolly Jabber and the Fat Quarter shop.
Aww, Kathy . . . these quilts are so sweet. The girls are adorable too, of course.
ReplyDeleteSo fun to make quilts for special people. These quilts are filled with love. A great pattern for a very fast, easy quilt when you need one!

ReplyDeleteI can't believe how straight the stitching is on the back of the binding. Mine is always wobbly. How do you get it so perfect?
