I’ve been sewing!
Thank you for sleeping so mommy can work!
The pattern is called Inner Glow. It has instructions for twin, queen, and king sizes. (This is the twin size.)
I hand quilted it with a super-simple big stitch using perle cotton. You can see it best in the photo of the back. The big chunky stitches contrast with the silky fabric in a way that I found very pleasing. Plus it was done in, like, two days. Can’t beat that for hand quilting!
The pattern will be a free download on my website as soon as I figure out how to do these sorts of things… so this weekend-ish.
The quilt is hanging out at Patches in Mt. Airy, MD. Do let me know if you’ve seen it there!
Next up I have some plans for the greenish -orangeish ones. This time I’m bringing in the rest of my stash to play as well.
Jessie, this pattern is absolutely gorgeous–stunning! There’s something about those light-colored crosses plus the flashes of orange against the purple that just lights the whole quilt up–hence the name I guess! I just love it, beautiful job!
Thanks Mom!
It turned out beautiful. I also like the picture of little Evelyn; dozing in her bouncy seat, amongst your creation.
