My friend Elizabeth sent me this fun fabric earlier in
the year...
and I have finally cut into it!
I used mostly the "5th and Fun" range
by Sandy Gervais,
with some Windham "Party Animals" thrown in for
extra fun!
extra fun!
(To be honest, I couldn't find any yardage of the
other fabric and this one seemed to fit the bill!)
I've paired the prints with some soft solid fabrics I
have been hoarding....

| Mini charms (2.5") bordered by 1.5" strips |
and this reminds me of Gelati, so that's what I'm
calling it!
Each square finishes at 4", so it's not a large quilt
at 32" x 36",
but it's mighty pretty!
I backed it with Lizzy House Mini Pearl Bracelets,
in Peach,
and quilted it simply with a double-line grid.
And for a quick finish, I machined down the binding!
Thanks to a long weekend here in Melbourne,
this quilt took me three days, start to finish!
Linking up with Sew, Stitch and Share....
Happy sewing!

Lovely. I like the gentle colors and fabric design.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in this quilt; it's modern but soft. I have a stash of Sandy Gervais baby fabrics from the 20th century which would look great with your pattern. Thanks for the inspiration as always.
ReplyDeleteIt is really pretty - so soft looking.
ReplyDeleteIt is just perfect and that's a lucky little baby!
ReplyDeleteAn amazingly productive weekend and a beautiful baby quilt. Such a simple yet effective design.
ReplyDeleteThis one is very special. I think the fabric combinations have worked extremely well and the colours are lovely. The simplicity of the design makes the fabrics shine.

Nice combination of fabric and arrangement. You got a lot of use out of a few days.
