This is the first time I have made a plus quilt, and I am really liking this pattern. It's so simple (just squares), but I love that it creates a design too.
I just now realized that this is actually another pixelated quilt, to go along with the other two I'm working on.
When we moved back to Texas a year and a half ago, I was naturally very worried about my school age daughter. I worried more about her than anything else.
As it usually goes, her adjustment to new school and new friends was a breeze. I owe most of that to her teacher last year, we really lucked out. That same teacher just had a baby, so this quilt is for her baby. I love her so much. She helped my daughter to blossom and brought out the best in her.
I quilted it on either side of the seams, and I love the texture it has, so soft.
Bound in blue and white stripes (this might be my very favorite binding ever, it's just so clean and crisp). Binding is from Sarah Jane's Out to Sea line for Michael Miller
I love the beautiful combination of colours in this quilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the fabric that you used to bind this quilt. I can't find this stripe anywhere.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteWinniebobbins, the binding is from Sarah Jane's Out to Sea line. I found it at fabric.com.

ReplyDeleteLove the fabric combo, especially the green Let's Pretend backing. I may have to emulate this quilt for my boss' new baby boy!
ReplyDeleteThis is nice. Are those 5" squares or charms? I want to make one now. In fact I am cutting up all my pirate stripe into binding. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com
ReplyDeleteI love it! How big are your squares? I've been wanting to make a plus quilt for a long time but I can never figure out the size of it!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Love those colours and that stripey binding. A beautiful gift that will be cherished.
ReplyDeleteI love it! The binding is so much fun. Your daughter's teacher is going to love it. I just made my first plus quilt in greens and blues and I really enjoyed putting it together!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Do you have a tutorial for this plus quilt?
ReplyDeleteclassic
ReplyDeleteThe binding finishes it so prefectly - what a gorgeous gift.
ReplyDeleteI don't often comment but this quilt is so gorgeous! I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteThose colors are great! I love a plus quilt. I'll have to try one w/ 5" squares...instead of 2 1/2". Sounds a lot faster!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! I love that binding.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderful quilt. I'm sure your friend will love it. Your quilts are always so appealing to me. I just love your fabric and design choices.
