Here's another gratuitous shot of the tutu. It's super cute!
I quilted the Tinkerbell quilt myself on the Juki:
Here's the finished project. It's naptakular!
And another close up of Jasmine's name embroidered: A matching pillowcase: With French Seams - My favorite quilt model, Stella, showing off the purple polka-dot flannel on the backside.
Here's this weekend's work on a very special quilt for a very special girl who adores Tinkerbell.
In the bright sun, I was not able to capture the vibrant colors of the quilt.
Here's a shot of the sun-lit backside:
And...
Thanks to the handiwork of my Aunt Mary,
We have a personalized touch -
I hope Jasmine loves it!
It's not quite done as of this posting.
Here's the quilt on the table freshly basted:
My nifty new scissors I picked up in Paducah this year, made by Kai, cut thru this big roll of flannel & cotton batting: Here, you can see the scissors, too: The binding will match the small green squares!
The wonderful vintage fabrics I first mentioned here have been cut, pieced, & quilted.
These fabrics came from Uncle David's mother & sister:
I'm pretty sure these two gals bought these fabrics, stashed it in a box, and forgot about them.
In 1955.
These cloths were in great condition!
This is my first attempt at curves and at the drunkard's path quilt pattern.
The pattern is super cute and easier than I expected.
Here, you can see the pieced backing with the vintage pieces: I used the red fabric with green strawberries for binding (also vintage) The curves came out so much better than I could have imagined: Again, quilted by the fabulous gals at Melear's Fabrics in Salem & Sullivan MO.
Delivered to Uncle David this morning.... I think he loved it!
