This lap quilt or large cot quilt is one of a set of three cot or lap quilts I made from one jelly roll of 'Mon Ami' by Basic Grey for Moda, using a pattern called To the Point by Amy Gibson.
The quilts are all made with half square triangles that are cut from joined strips of the jelly roll and I quilted this one with randomly spaced wavy lines.
And the girls came over for a look-see...
May 2017: I have donated this to the Lindsay family to auction at their fundraising quiz, raising money for their church mission to India later this year - what a great adventure they will have, full of purpose, and such a fascinating part of the world to visit. I wish them good luck for their trip!
Mmmm I have this fabric, I have these patterns............you have me thinking I should make them!
ReplyDeleteYou totally should! You won't regret it! They look really lovely - I can't pick a favourite.
DeleteI love the little pieces in your quilt and how nice they look as a host! It's beautiful! Amazing what one jelly roll can make with some background fabric.
ReplyDeleteThanks Shannon, I am also often amazed by what can come from one jelly roll too!
DeleteCongratulations on the beautiful finish. Great name, too. I like to take my queue from the fabrics when naming my quilts, as well! Thank you for participating in the FAL, on behalf of the 2017 global FAL hosts.
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's a good motivation to get things done.
DeleteWow that is a lot of finishes you have done. Love that Kiwi's post to Crazy mum quilts
ReplyDeleteThanks tonnes! Is good to get some things ticked off (and quilting is my distraction from a busy week teaching, bliss).
DeleteWonderful quilts, they all look so fresh & pretty!
ReplyDeleteThree quilts from one jelly roll, that's amazing. I love how the strips are turned in each direction within the quilt. Great finishes!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilts - amazing how far you were able to stretch the jelly roll! I've fairly recently made this pattern too and loved it (although mine's not yet quilted!)
ReplyDeleteThanks Raewyn, all three turned out so well - was nice to try a new set of patterns.
DeleteOh my goodness ~ I just did a series of 3 quilts with the same fabrics, too!! How crazy and 'it's a small world-ish' is that?
ReplyDeleteI like how you sewed strips together, then made the hst - it really makes the quilt sparkle, and your wavy line quilting is great! Love the picture with the cows :-)
happy quilting ~ Tracy
