I've been meaning to do this all week, but things have been pretty busy around here and I figured I'd just have to let this one slide. But here I am, hours before the deadline, literally grabbing this quilt off of one of my sleeping children to snap another shot of this quilt - it's still warm from that sweet little snoozer!
Fabric: Just Wing It by Momo/ Pattern: Sweet Garden by Emily Cier
This quilt is special to me for lots of reasons: it marks my first quilt made after a long hiatus in sewing to have my babies, it's the first time I used a layer cake, and it's the first quilt I blogged about in my first ever blog post. But it goes without saying that it is most special because my daughter loves it, and uses it every day. This is why I love quilting! Playing with fun fabrics, deciding on patterns/design layout, and in the end, you have something totally useable and practical. Speaking of which...I better get this back on that little snoozer before she wakes up and wonders why it suddenly got a little less warm in her room...
Wow, this is STUPENDOUS! It's so graphical, I just LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable you stole her blanket in the middle of the night to share with us! Great quilt!!!! I have never used a layer cake either but this quilt makes me want to go buy one. Really love how bright it is, funny how white makes a quilt pop... Love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lucky little snoozer to have such a beautiful quilt! You did a great job! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Hungary. I really like your quilt. Beautiful colors, and stitching. I love the asymmetrical patterns.
ReplyDeleteI do love this fabric and your quilt is gorgeous! I am sure you had to wait until after bedtime to snap a pic since it is probably very well loved. :)
ReplyDeleteVery very beautiful, spectacular, congratulations:)))
ReplyDeleteYou did an amazing job after not sewing for a length of time! Love the colors!
