Out to Sea Quilt

Here is my last make of 2016. It is a queen size quilt I made for the beach house with "Out to Sea" fabric.

I liked the fabric so much that I didn't want to chop it up into small pieces.

I found a quilt on Pottery Barn that I like and used it for my inspiration.

After I had started quilting it I saw my map in the upper left corner is upside down - ugh!!

All is well though, the top two row's fold down to cover it when the bed is made so

it doesn't show.

 

 

 

 

 

I used the pink anchor fabric shown above to make roman shades for the room and plan to add

Navy Blue curtains to add a little color to the outside of the window.

This quilt has already been slept under by my daughter, who said it is so soft and cuddly

that she wanted to take it home with her when she left.

I forgot to take a picture of the back - I used Navy Blue and white Chevron Fabric.

 

I hope you have a fun week-end doing the things you like to do.

until later - Carol

 

 

Quilts for My Daughters

I thought I had posted pictures of this quilt but I didn't. This is another finish for 2016.

this quilt was inspired by the Bestie quilt's  I made for my granddaughters.

I made 2 of these- one for each daughter.

 

I found the embroidery designs at Bunnycup Embroidery

and thought they were so cute I could hardly wait to use them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

you may remember this design from the pillow

covers I made for my sisters

 

 

I found this Pearls & Lace Heart from Hang to Dry and it

seemed perfect for this quilt.

 

I hope you are having lots of fun doing the things you like to do.

until later - Carol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Bestie Quilt

I found some cute fabric panels and had to make some Bestie quilts for my four granddaughters.

I think it turned out so cute!

here are the finished quilts together

 

 

 

I was lucky enough to find a machine embroidery

design like the panel and stitched it up

with Nene Loves Ya under it

(I was Mimi but the grandkids changed it to Nene, lol)

 

 

 

these quilts were made first to give as Christmas gifts

then I thought they were so cute  I had to make the

quilts I already showed you for my son and two daughters.

Now my daughter wants me to make a rag quilt for my

granddaughters bed so that will be next and I want to

join the swoon quilt along on instagram and I still have

a few quilts that need to be quilted and ....

 

I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday Season and the New Year

ahead holds lots of good thing for you!!!

until later - Carol
