Lovely Colours.
Posted on | November 19, 2014 | 17 Comments
Over the past few weeks I have been playing with these lovely fabrics.
This is a baby quilt I have made for our niece. She is due in the first week of December.
It is made using HSTs. I started with 12 fat quarters and still have fabric over. The fabric is all from one of Nancy Halverston’s ranges.
All the quilting is straight line.
I like the way it shows up well on the back of the quilt.
The backing fabric has cute little animals on it – elephant, rhino and giraffe.
The binding is a simple linen look grey.
I am very pleased to have this ready before the arrival of the baby.
I do hope she likes it.
Cheers, Karen
