I have got a new listing in my
Etsy shop. Put it up there the other day, did all the social media advertising but forgot about my blog.
So here is a quick rundown on this cute little quilt
The quilt measures 33-1/2in x 48-1/2in (85.1cm x 123.2cm).
It is pieced, i.e. the panel (Noah & Friends by Liza Lewis for Clothworks Fabrics) was extended by a coordinating sashing and outer border. The quilt top and backing are quality cotton fabrics with a layer of 60% cotton/40% polyester batting in between. The quilting was the best part of it. I used a new edge-to-edge design called 'Lorien's Festival by Hermione Agee available through Urban Elementz. Lots of fun...the design was easy to execute and flowed really well.
Quilted this with my favourite thread, Aurifil 50/2 in an orange tone. The fun, striped binding is double-fold for extra durability, machine stitched to the front and hand stitched to the back.
Close up of those cute characters. Always enjoy quilting little baby quilts and this one in particular due to its bright colours and general busy-ness. There are so many different animals in this small panel tugged away all over the place and I could imagine it would be fun for a toddler to discover them all.
An outside shot. I always include a picture of the quilt on the old outside bench. Although a bit darker this time (its winter over here) it does show the quilt in natural light.
A fun little quilt. For more pictures on the detail, head over to my Etsy shop 'The QuiltYarn'
