Completed:
The Waterfront Park Quilt is done! I actually finished this one before Christmas, but I realized I haven't done a WIP post since then, so some of you may have missed the big reveal.

I also finished five pillows for the STLMQG Pillow Bomb Project!
In progress:
This week has been all about the Bluebird Park Baby Quilt. I have a deadline of this Saturday, so I'm pushing to get it all finished. I stayed up until after 3 on Monday night trying to finish piecing the back.
[UPDATE: Thanks to the wonder of Pinterest, a lot of people have expressed an interest in this quilt. (So glad you like it!) For pictures and all the info you need about the finished quilt (including the pattern I used), see this post.]

The fabrics are all from the precious Bluebird Park collection, and I adore them. The hedgehogs are my favorite.

Last night, I basted and quilted it, but I'm a bit lost on deciding on the binding fabric. I fear a trip to the LQS may be in order.

I think it's fun, different, and sophisticated (or at least I hope so). I'm debating between two of the patterns in Modern Patchwork, which I got for Christmas and can't wait to start in on.

Did you use a pattern for the Blueburd Park Baby Quilt? I love that pattern and would like to get a copy!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt design is the Cub Crawl Baby Quilt from the Fat Quarterly book Shape Workshop for Quilters: http://www.amazon.com/Fat-Quarterly-Shape-Workshop-Quilters/dp/1454702826/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390279134&sr=8-1&keywords=fat+quarterly. It came together very easily and would be a good beginner quilt. You can read more about it in the final reveal post for the quilt: http://ablueskykindoflife.blogspot.com/2014/01/bluebird-park-baby-quilt-finished.html. Hope that helps! Best of luck!
DeleteGlad I found your tutorial...... I've been looking for a pattern for a cute baby quilt. I think I found it!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your baby quilt--the pattern, colors, fabric choice. Love all your work!
ReplyDeleteHi. Who makes your sewing labels? I've been searching for someone to make labels for my sewing projects

DeleteJudith, the labels used on the pillows in this post were made on Spoonflower.com. I also have labels that I insert into the binding on my quilts, which you can see in this post: http://ablueskykindoflife.blogspot.com/2015/03/sorbet-baby-quilt-finish.html. They're made by Custom Labels 4 U (link in that post). Hope that helps!
