Top is completed, I will probably quilt this one myself. Here are a few close ups:
It all looks the same, right? LOL, I guess that's kind of the point when you're pulling fabrics for this kind of quilt. There are plenty of pale pinks and sky blues blended in, and I also used a lot of text prints which are a current favorite of mine (it seems as if I'm trying to collect ALL of them). I plan to back this quilt using some of the popular text print from IKEA - I have about 8 yards of it "on reserve: for just such a project! I'd be more embarrassed about my fabric hoarding tendencies if I didn't know so many other quilters are doing the same thing. And considering when I bought my 8 yards, another quilter was cutting about the same amount from another bolt.....
Those poor, clueless non-quilters who just want to make some 2-3 yard curtains with it........hee-hee-hee.
One more pic with my helper holding it up!

That looks great. I love the low volume quilts.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous, Tanesha! And what a great helper :)
ReplyDeleteSo soft and sweet and lovely. You said you had enough fabrics for more of these? I think 20 patch blocks of the low volume fabrics alternated with some other blocks (stars perhaps) would be lovely too. So many quilts, so little time, right?
ReplyDeleteVery soft and soothing.
