You've seen bits and pieces of this quilt already. I really like how it turned out. There's no question that this quilt will go to a little girl. My own daughter has begged me not to let it go, I promised her I'd make another one.
I LOVED the quilting on this quilt, and had to try it.
I did concentric circles, but soon realized a spiral would've had the same effect without the stopping and starting.
the heart backing reminds me of those rainbow heart bracelets we used to have as kids.
and the binding, it reminds me of fruit stripe gum.
both the backing and binding fabric are from Robert Kaufman's Remix line.
Oh it is stunning- so perfect with that pink! What color pink is it? Kona?
ReplyDeleteStunning pink and I love the quilting. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteI was stuck on how to quilt a disappearing 9 patch quilt I'd made for a fundraiser at our school. Then I saw this beautiful work of yours. Perfect! I used your idea of a giant spiral...thanks for the inspiration.

ReplyDeleteI have never made a quilt before and I just know this will be my first! I will copy the whole damn thing except switch out pink for blue. This just has to be my littlest boys quilt.
ReplyDeletevery lovely looking quilt!! really nice, I'd never can made nothing like this
ReplyDeletewas it hard to bind a big spiral? I'd love to do that on a quilt, my grandma thought too hard, but I think it's really pretty!
ReplyDeletehi laurel, Binding it wasn't a problem, and this quilt was really small. But I did a spiral on a larger quilt and actually quilting it was a pretty big pain @ the beginning when you are shifting the quilt through your sewing machine arm.
