This quilt was crafted in the 50’s. Very cute but not real complicated. The quilter appliqued the raw cut edges with a buttonhole stitch. On close observation it appears that the edges were later zigzagged (sewn on a sewing machine) as to prevent raveling. There is no batting making this a great bed topper or summer quilt. The backing is a pink plaid flannel. Visit MyKindredTree.com for more information on the maker of this quilt.
I wanted a project to do with my granddaughter when she came for an extended visit this summer. I suggested we make a quilt together and she readily agreed. She choose a quilt design she saw on the internet. We altered it a bit to fit a twin bed. We had fun looking through my stash of fabrics. We found several pieces we liked but needed more. A trip to the Hobby Lobby offered a new array of fabrics and the color scheme morphed as Adelle found some colors that she really liked.
Adelle helped cut the shapes and positioned them very carefully according to how she thought they looked best. She helped sew a bit too. We loaded it onto the long arm. It turned out great!
