Enchanted Quilting 885 Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 This twin sized quilt is for a 3 year old whose "big girl" room is to be park like...sky, clouds, grassy rug. Her grandmother wanted this quilt to have flowers, butterflies and grass to add some more to the park theme.

Enchanted Quilting 885 Posted June 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Beautiful quilting, Charlotte!! That little girl is going to be so happy with her new quilt! I'm curious, are those GFG's pieced by machine or hand? The quilter used Eleanor Burns method, so there are only 3 pieces of fabric, fused, and turned under with a machine blanket stitch. She said she really like this method. Where there would traditionally be seams, she top stitched for a faux seam look. It was her idea to put the flowers in the block...worked great as there was plenty of fullness with all of the fabric/interfacing. Bonnie H 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LibbyG 1,020 Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 I love the look of an allover background quilting done on quilts with this type of pattern. Looks great! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Busy Quilting 442 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 mmm, makes me think my brand new granddaughter might need one similar for her big girls bed. Is big girls about 16 years of age? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RitaR 647 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Charlotte, you certainly nailed and greatly enhanced that quilt. Beautiful work. To me the flowers look 3-D. and my first thought was that's snow that was blown around a lot. I know, I know, I very often see something no one else sees. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Linda G. Craig 36 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Love what you did with this quilt! It's really suits the quilt and shows it off so well. I looked in my Eleanor Burns book and it shows that the flowers have an option of extra batting in the flower, giving it that raised, pop look. I'm wondering if that's what your customer did as well. So pretty! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
