I recently got my new bed quilt back from my friend Sharon Brule, who did an absolutely amazing job quilting it. I wish these photos did the quilting justice.
Here's the original quilt top, which I started piecing in 2006 and finished in 2011. Sharon quilted it so that each square or rectangle you see in the quilt top has a separate quilting design--many geometric, but some with swirls or bubbles.
And here's the back side. I wanted to make it double-sided so that I had variety and wouldn't be tempted to make a bed quilt again soon. :)
And here are some close-ups so you can admire the quilting:
Didn't she do a beautiful job?!?! I have the binding fabric for it (a Kaffe stripe), and finishing this quilt it next on my to-do list!
Then I'm going to buy some new sheets. What color sheets do you think I should get?
Quilting is fantastic! Wonder if there is a celery sheet out there...yellow-green?
ReplyDeleteluv it-simple but exquisite quilting and fabric make it soo special! wondering what to do with my kaffe stash! hmm... maybe this is the answer!
