A Tummy Time Quilt for Wyatt!

Wyatt's Tummy Time ready for givingI’m always excited to personally deliver a Tummy Time quilt, especially when it involves holding babies!  Wyatt’s quilt is my favorite Rectangle Strings with a soft flannel backing.  And thanks to this quilt hanging out in my studio before I was able to deliver it, lots of my clients chose Overlapping Looped Spirals for their quilts, too.Wyatt's Tummy Time QuiltThe strings are color and novelties creating a mass of little “I Spy” fun!  Some of the strings are flannel for textures changes.  My Tummy Time quilts are for car rides, floor playing and park days!

Whenever I finish this pattern, I start another, because there are lots of babies out there!  Stay tuned for the next delivery!

Thanks!

Looped Spirals and Homespun

Posted on by
Looped Spirals and Homespun

I love homespun quilts, especially after they are washed and dried, they get all wrinkly and cuddly.

For this quilt we decided on a freehand E2E that I call Looped Spirals.  I slightly overlapped the spirals to add interest and mimic the way a plaid overlaps.

The spirals add great texture which will increase and soften with washing.  The batting is Quilter’s Dream 100% cotton select, perfect for homespun quilts!  Just the right about of shrinkage and thickness.

And I have to show you the fun pieced back!

 

Thanks for looking and just keep stitchin’

Another Melrose fabric quilt!

Another Melrose fabric quilt!

Barbara at Rainbows and Calico Things Quilt Shop used the Melrose fabric by Red Rooster  for a shop sample.  Here’s the quilt that I made with the same fabric – Bryana + Sam .

The quilting design is a freehand E2E called Overlapped Looped Spirals.

The spiral adds great texture to the squareness of the quilt and mimics the focus fabric elements.

Check out Rainbows and Calico Things for Melrose Five and Dime kits to complete this quilt.

Come to the Williamsburg area February 18 or 19 for the I-80 Quilter’s Shopping Spree at the Little Amana Clarion Inn.  Lots of vendors under one roof!

 

Thanks for looking and just keep stitchin’!
