hello Friday!
today is my stop on the Child’s Play Quilts book tour!!
I am so excited to share my project with you…and to be included on this tour too!
this is a great book – not only are there some amazingly fun projects, there are some great tips for making color slabs and using scraps to make these quilts…
be sure to stop by Stacey’s blog for a chance to win a copy of her book…
or you can purchase a signed copy in her etsy shop…
click here to see the full tour stops…
my quilt project is on the cover….
if you were here on Wednesday, then you saw my color slabs for this project…
here are the templates for the rain drops…
on the larger rain drops, I did donut the fusible web…
so this was my test…
I laid out all my pieces
and then picked them back up and placed them on one at a time…
so I ironed each one…one at a time and did a narrow zig-zag with matching thread…really love how they turned out…
tadah!
my finished Baby Shower top…
now to decide how to quilt it…
any ideas??
since this is a finished project…I am linking up with Sarah, Amanda and Myra
Happy Sewing!
Love the quilt – definitely some coloured hand quilting around the raindrops! x
Oh, I love this! I think I’d quilt some very gentle vertical curves, to replicate the fall of the rain.
I absolutely love this quilt. It is effective, fairly easy and quick, can be adapted to any colour scheme, and a great us to use up scraps. x
Love, love this quilt – and the different cute raindrops appliqued on top of it. Not sure on the quilting – I always struggle with that for my own, but looking forward to what you decide on!
Well, you surprised me and I love it!! As for quilting… I love your waves and maybe you can echo them around the shape of the raindrops.
What a cute top! No clue, other than to simulate rain by gently curving quilt lines.
I love it. What a different pattern too. Love the appliqués.
Very pretty quilt! So cute! Have a wonderful day! angielovesgary2 atgmail dotcom
Adorable Rain drops & maybe some circle type quilting to mimic raindrops.
Love the scrappy raindrops. i certainly would not have thought to use scraps for this shape. Thanks for sharing.
I love this. So cheerful .
Love the slab raindrops and low volume background. Very pretty!
I love the raindrops quilt! So colorful!
this has turned out so pretty. hmm, i think i would quilt it with flowers, like rain brings flowers idea
Cute Rain Drop quilt!
