Pastel Baby Quilt


This is a baby quilt I made with left over Drunkards path blocks from another quilt.
I sashed it with simple squares.
Most of the fabrics are hand dyed, some by me, some by my friend Irene and some from a fabulous stall at the Edinburgh quilt show.



I like quilting on plain fabric as it really shows up the quilting.
I used one layer of Soft and Bright wadding and used a pale blue thread throughout for the quilting.


The quilting is all free motion, umarked and worked on my Gracie frame with my Janome 1600P.







I had just enough of this beautiful batik for the binding. Perfect!








The back...


I really enjoyed making this one. It was a blast.

It is for sale, £60 plus postage. Email me at rhianontaylor@blueyonder.co.uk if interested.
Onto the next quilt now..........

  9. Stunning!!! I love the free motion quilting. It looks incredible. How do you do that incredible stitching? Probably years of practice. How can you sell it? I think I'd save it for someone special. Would be good for either a boy or girl.
