Bright Baby Patchwork Quilt
There is an upside to social media; high school friends & custom sewing orders. Facebook is a great way to keep friends and family up on what your blog or shop is doing. I share my latest Etsy listings and my blog posts (Hi Everybody!!!). It is also the way a good ol’ friend of mine got a hold of me to make a custom baby quilt for her sister. What an honor to create an item used, loved and wrapped around a little tiny baby!
Another plus of custom orders is making something that pushes you out of a comfort design zone. You know the one where you use up all the favorite colors you go to each time. Or a design that keeps in line with the HST’s of most my finished quilts! This quilt was that for me. A new color palate that is so rich with the bright green, yellow & aqua with pops of red. Reminiscent of the tropics in a blue blue sea, sandy beaches, lush foliage and hints of flowery reds.
The front is simple patchwork squares with a yellow boarder & aqua binding. The back is strips in warm/cool gradient of the same colors. I drew inspiration for this quilt from Red Pepper Quilts and did the quilting in the same way as Rita would have, simple lines in a grid.
I enjoyed making this quilt with a friend in mind. I hope her family enjoys it for as long as it lasts!
Cheers,
Kelly
