Well here is the nicey jane quilt top, in need of a good trip to the iron but I needed to quickly grab retro daddy to hold it for me before he left for work!!!! Progress has been a little slow as the babies have decided they don’t like their 6pm bedtime……so I haven’t been able to get sewing till much later at night!
I love the colours (pink and green is one of my favourite combinations) and just love the pattern (from here). It took me a little while to cut and put the 20 blocks together as well as the white sashing but it’s such a fun project and will fit a single bed in little keira’s room perfectly. I think I love it so much I feel another one coming along in the sandi henderson ginger blossom! I also discovered I’ve been using a 1/2 inch seam….ahhhhhhh…..so my blocks turned out to be 10 1/2 inches instead of 11!!!!
how lovely? is this destined for a bedroom? so pretty.
Trust me from a readers point of view it didn’t look slow going at all! It looks really fresh, love how all the colours have come together.
Very pretty. I love the pink and green too.
Pink and Green is one of my favourite combinations too – I dont think you can beat it. the quilt is looking great, as is your new look blog – though I thought the old look was pretty cool too
This is gorgeous Corrie. Was this made from a fat quarter pack or a layer cake or none of those!
Leah I used part of a jolly pack (charm square pack) and swell fat quarter pack from fat quarter shop!!!!! I will enough left over to do another quilt but not as big as this one!
Corrie:)
This is gorgeous! What a lucky little girl! Love the white sashing – really lets the other fabrics sparkle.
Thanks for another blog to follow! I’ve never seen Crazymomquilts, but want to make this pattern now, if only i can get my UFO’s finished…..Keira is sooo lucky!
Love the colours too. They go so well together. Its a great pattern too. I have that one on the to do list to do one day.
Just very lovely! I wish I had the energy and patience to quilt. Maybe a quilting group would be good for me.
So beautiful! Pink and green are a great combination. I don’t think it really makes any difference that you did a 1/2 inch seam, it looks perfect!
Gorgeous quilt! Just gorgeous. I love pink and green together as well, so fresh and pretty and girly. And the new look on the blog is great too!
fantastic Corrie, it looks beautiful. I love the new look blog to.
Don’t tell us about the 1/2″ seams and we’ll never know LOL! It’s beautiful — I love the pink and green too!
Looks fantastic Corrie!!!
Beautiful colours! They look so fresh teamed with white, I can just picture it on a little girl’s bed.
That is a delicious looking quilt I love it! Very little girl roomish! Perfect great job.
I really like the summery colours of this quilt!
I was so inspired by your blog make over that I am looking at changing mine too. Just need to the style and fonts:)
Have a great evening crafting. See you soon. X
Oh, so lovely Corrie, & loving the new larger images on your blog. Those cookies in the last post are making me hungry. Must give the recipe a go for recess when school goes back – they are safer in lunch boxes & out of the house or i’d eat them!! Love Posie
Swoon……..I love it! The fabric, the colours – just gorgeous.
Oh, nice. Yours is the first thing I have seen with the nicey jane.. I am new to your blog sent over from Cath U.. I have just started my own blog and love comments too. I have met so many wonderful poeple from Australia.Thanks
Maggey
Love it! Will have to try one I think
This is very pretty. Love it, love it, wish I had a little girl who still loves pink ;-(.
And 6pm that is very early. Bet they are up early too. I love it my kids go to school at daytime, that gives me some sewing time as before 9 or 9.30 pm there won’t be quiet sewing hours in this house and usually that is too late for me! Just hang on, and make the best of every second 😉
Very nice…I love that color combo too! You did a great job!
Right! I am making this for one of the wedding quilts! Question, how many fat quarters did you use? 10? And did you use your quilters muslin for sashing?
Love it Corrie! Beautiful! xox
