I finished the quilt I've been making for a friend at work and I really don't want to say goodbye to it. I absolutely love it but, since she's already paid me for it, it would be a little rude to run off with it. Here's the completed quilt. The pictures aren't the best but the good camera was elsewhere and I don't actually get to see daylight outside of work at the moment so they're the best I can get.
The fabric is all from the Rouenneries range by French General for Moda and I love the subtle colours and patterns. I kept the quilting simple and echo quilted around the piecing to really bring out the pattern. It's got a few puckers on the back but I think I'm getting a little better at layering so hopefully they'll be some of my last.
Wow very nice. What pattern did you use?
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful quilt. I absolutely LOVE the French General line of fabric. I am using it in an applique quilt right now and am thinking of buying more for a class that I will be taking in September with Gwen Marston. Have you thought of duplicating this quilt for yourself?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately this range of fabric has been so popular that my local quilt shop sold out in a couple of weeks. I think I might have to hit the internet though because I adore it.
ReplyDeleteLove this. I have a charm pack of Rouenneries and am savoring it. Would love to know the pattern too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt. Would you mind sharing what pattern you used. I have this fabric and haven't been able to decide on a pattern and I love this one.
ReplyDeleteThank you.

I made it up from a tutorial I saw online but it's no longer available. If you bear with me, I'll put together a quick how-to
ReplyDeleteStill waiting on that how to! :) This is the pattern I've chosen for a quilt for my oldest son and his bride....just haven't found the best directions for making one or the perfect fabrics...I want to do a plum/sage/ cream color way.
