Out to Sea

Today I wanted to share with you a nautical inspired quilt made from the beautiful Michael Miller Littles collection. The fabric is super sweet with anchors, boats and lifesavers and also includes some great complementary dots and stripes.

I had fun making this one up adding 3 sailboat blocks as a feature in the centre.

The quilt is cot sized and would make the perfect edition to any little boys room.

In keeping with the nautical theme the quilt was quilted with an all over wave design by my longarmer, Donna.

I backed this one with Britten Nummer fabric from Ikea. It is 150cm wide so is perfect backing for cot quilts and requires no joining.

This quilt was featured in Patchwork & Stitching nautical inspired edition.

If you would like to purchase this quilt it is available in my shop here.

Lusciousness Quilt - Work In Progress

If you have been following my blog you would have seen that beautiful Lush fabric by Patty Young for Michael Miller.

I matched the fabric up with some super soft grey shot cotton from my stash and just love the softness it brings to the quilt.



This is queen bed size and I will be backing it with the large Iris floral print and binding with the super bright Clown Stripe in "Candy" Pink by Michael Miller Fabrics.

Linking up at Freshly Pieced for WiP Wednesday! 

Till next time.....happy sewing.

Sunday Stash - Lush

 

I was fortunate enough a few months ago to pick up 10 fat quarters of Lush by Patty Young for Michael Miller. I was immediately drawn the beautiful florals featuring large lily's and lotus flowers.

My selection consisted of mainly pinks and turquoises which fit together beautifully including a few simple style blenders.

I am thinking of teaming this fabric up with some grey shot cotton from my stash and making various sized sashed blocks into a queen bed quilt. Make sure you watch this space !!

It's Sunday so I'm linking up with Molli Sparkles Sunday Stash weekly linky party.

Till next time....happy sewing..
