Blissful Blossoms All Quilted!

002
This may just be one of my favorite quilts EVER!!!  Linda from The Quilted Pineapple did the quilting for me, and it is exquisite.  She did all of the quilting *freehand*, believe it or not!  Trust me, this gal does great work.  And her prices are reasonable too.   Look at the close up of her quilting:

Freehand!  I highly recommend Linda's quilting services.  She is a very conscientious and creative quilter, and I plan to use her many more times in the future.

This quilt is going to be a focal point of Baby E's room, and I will be taking lots of pictures of it when I get the binding on and it is in its new home.  Of course I have no idea which box contains the red binding material I had set aside for this quilt, so I had to order a half yard online.  Thank goodness I found a shop that still had it!

The fabric is Bliss by Bonnie and Camille for Moda, who can do no wrong when it comes to designing smash hit fabric lines.  The pattern is "Sweet Little Blossoms" by Margot Languedoc of The Pattern Basket.

All in all, this was an effort that came together just right!   A perfect melding of fabric, pattern, and quilting.

Have a lovely weekend everyone.  Thank you for your expressions of sympathy on the loss of my dear friend yesterday.   His memorial service is Sunday, and I hope his daughters are finding some comfort in the expressions of love that all of his many friends are displaying.

  1. Blissful Blossoms is perfect in every way and Linda’s creative and happy quilting helps it sing! What a relief that your could find more of the red fabric to use for binding. I applaud your wisdom in not frantically searching for the binding you’d already made.
    Hugs!
