Teacups, Fruits and Flowers

Hello Again!

As always I have been busy quilt making, however, this week I have been sewing for some smaller customers. I thought I would make some more child cot quilts/blankets as they are just so cute!

This quilt features a pastel colour scheme that mainly consists of florals, checks and spots. It also includes some more unique squares that feature teacups and saucers and red and green apples!

Because the quilt itself is smaller, I decided to make the squares smaller too which looks really effective. I also added a pink border which matches the pink underside and a matching cushion which also features a pink border.

The quilt is small and would look great on a child's bed or on a small chair. It is also easy to transport and can be used in the back of the car or when staying over at friends!

I hope it makes your mouth water like it does mine!

Baby Elsa's Rainbow Quilt

Earlier this month I had a special request for a patchwork quilt. The four month old owner, (well her mum) desired a small quilt that could fit in a baby cot yet grow with her at the same time. I was told to use bold colours and nothing overly girly like baby pink. This is what I have come up with...

The underside is bold red polka dots. I quilted the squares with red thread and added a small border.

I had some left over polyester wadding so I decided to make two matching cushions to match! Elsa doesn't know yet so shhhh... She'll find out on Thursday!

This quilt measures just over a metre long by 85cms. I do not have any children, however, have been told that this is the perfect size to fit in a cot and a buggy, yet would also make a nice sized blanket on a small single bed. It's all wrapped up and ready to go now, as am I - I have the flu boo!

If you like what you see, as always you can message me for requests. Just include the size you would like, whether you would like small or large squares and if you fancy any matching cushions. I will get back to you with a quote and the fancy fun details such as colour can then be sorted out!

Lots of Quilting Love,
