I made this little cot quilt about twelve months ago as a 'welcome to the world gift' for a newborn niece. Sorry, the photos are not great - if you click on them, hopefully you'll see more detail. It is Sweet Dreams Angel Quilt by Bareroots.
It was fun to make as each panel has a different stitchery on it, with each second one being an angel of some sort. Very sweet for a little girl. The blocks were supposed to be needle turn applique, but I resorted to machine blanket stitch for a more speedy result. I needed to get it to my niece before her 21st birthday! The stitchery background is a soft beige checked sandcastle - wonderfully soft to stitch, but tricky to transfer the design as the fabric is so thick.
And my favourite block? The cow jumping over the moon:
Your stitchery is wonderful -- as is the quilt!

This is a georgius quilt. The angels are so cute. And the cow....yes she is also my favorite :)
ReplyDeleteYour stitches are beautiful and I love the colors that you selected. I also like that each block has a "rounded" edge.

ReplyDeleteOh, this is so precious! You're stitchery is beautiful and I love the fabrics you chose. Definitely a keepsake for your little niece to cherish as she grows up.
ReplyDeleteOk, I knon it's been awhile since you posted this one but I love this quilt and my brothers asked me to make it for a very good friend of his. . . The problem is I can't get Bareroots to reply to my ordered other than its being processed since 4/8. They don't reply to my email or answer their phone. Do you have any idea where I might be able to buy the pattern?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your help,
