    Finished Plus Quilt

    Jul 28, 2011

     
    Love the way this one turned out.  This pattern definitely calls for simple quilting, and straight lines here and there did just the trick.
    It is a very simple pattern, but if you need the math done for you for 6 sizes you can find a pattern here.  
     
     
    The back is this fabulous print from the Denyse Schmidt collection at Joann’s.  I bought 2 yards of this the first time I saw it  because I love it so much as a back…or pillows.
     
     
    I really should have ironed this before pictures.  Oh well.  :)

      Gosh I love this quilt! I feel like I say that about everything you make. The binding is just about the perfect green and looks great. Seriously, have you ever made anything ugly??

      That is fantastic! The colors are so “me”, I may have to make one now. I agree, that backing fabric is great :)

      Your blog has inspired me to make my very first quilt! Thank you! I'm going to use Pooches and Pickups (or whatever it's called!) for my son's room. I don't think I'll be able to make them as quickly and as beautifully as you do, but it's worth a try! I plan to purchase your Easy Bake Pattern for my next quilt (it's addictive).

      But what I absolutely LOVE about your blog is that you're not a "fabric snob." You definitely showcase some amazing designer fabric. But you also highlight some of the the great finds from JoAnn (where I almost always have a 40% coupon in my purse!). I love the "high low" design aesthetic.

      Thank you! Lindsay

      The colors are so refreshing. It will always say "summer", don't you think? And you couldn't have found a better match for a backing. Thanks for sharing.

      Stupid question alert!!

      I'm sure you have it listed somehwere, but for some reason, I can't see it now.

      Do you have a place for us to upload pictures of finished quilts using your patterns? I have 2 of your patterns finished (and more in the works). I am IN LOVE with how they turned out!

      ...and I used to say I wasn't a quilter! I guess I'm quickly changing my tune.
