Yellow Bird Quilting Cottage: June 2015

Sunday, June 14, 2015

I love this quilt! The bright colors - oh the bright colors I do love.

My son asked me for a king size quilt and I started buying fabric

right away. Well I kept buying fabric

(I know I was going about this backwards, haha!)

but couldn't decide what

pattern I was going to use until I saw this one.

then I cut one out and appliqued it onto a square.

What???? I have to do 70 of these??? This is going

to take me forever..... then

I did a little bit of searching on the internet

and found this deer made for machine applique

YES

It still took quite a bit of time but it was much faster and

Well worth the effort.

This is a quilt top I put together a long time ago and finally quilted it

I just love this little bird it is so cute!!

this pattern is for a table runner but I wanted to

use it double to make a quilt and I'm so glad I did

it is super cute, the picture really doesn't do it justice.

I used the same fabric for the backing that I used in the border.

I have another really cute quilt coming up that I made for my son

so stay tuned!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful week-end!

until later - Carol
