It's that time of year again....The Blogger's Quilt Festival!! YAY!!
I entered the Dresden Plate Quilt that I finished just a few weeks ago. I have named it "Jeffrey's Quilt". If you want to know why you can read the story about this quilt here.
I designed the layout, colors and quilting on this quilt. I quilted it on my sit-down Tin Lizzie. I tried to make it look like an older quilt I had seen many years ago. I think I did it!! It has the soft look and feel of a much loved quilt. Just what I wanted.
I love the pinks and greens of the 1930's. That is why I chose them to sash and bind the quilt.
Please hop over to The Blogger's Quilt Festival at Amy's Creative side and vote for my quilt. Wouldn't that be a great tribute to "MY JEFFREY" if everyone loved his quilt as much as I do!!
Enjoy the festival and be sure and check out all the great quilts and quilter's!!
Happy Trails,
Mtn Mama
It truly looks like an antique quilt! You did a great job and what a lovely tribute to Jeffrey...
ReplyDeleteYou've used lots of lovely fabrics in your quilt. A wonderful quilt!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful! I love the pink and green, so sweet! I am using some of those same repro fabrics in a quilt I'm making :) Your quilt is a treasure!
ReplyDeleteI love your quilt! You're totally right about the green and pink - they just set this quilt up so beautifully and lend that authentic feeling. The border is really nice too. I hope someday I can make a Dresden quilt that comes close to how pretty this one is!
