Does this look familiar? UFO
1 Attachment(s)
Hi, I'm trying to work on finishing UFO's and came across this almost finished quilt top, with no pattern, of course. I have the appliqué pieces for the last teddy bear, but can't remember the rest. I THINK each teddy bear had a balloon. This was MAYBE from an old Quiltmaker magazine, but who knows which one of the hundreds I have. Does anyone recognize the pattern, and can help me? Please excuse my "girl"- why DO they think anything put down is for them!! Thanks!!

She is just trying to tell you how she would finish the quilt!! Don't think I have that pattern, but balloons would be cute!
|
I don't know the pattern but I would think balloons and/or kites would look great.
|
I made one like this years ago for my great nephew, he is now 12!!!!!!
|
I vote for a kite on a string.
|
Balloons for sure! Kites would not fit?
|
Found it! Teddy Bear Party, Quiltmaker, May/June 03. Each bear holds a string of balloons, with extras spread here and there. Booboo and I thank you for the input!

I have to agree ballons or kites would really looks cute.
|
how about a flag?
|
I think different colored balloons would be really cute and add more color, make it look brighter.
|
I agree with Jingle but xif you look at the feet they are getting further from the ground. So more balloons as you go up
|
I think adding balloons would be terrific
|
I really like this idea of kites in the adjacent empty square. Especially if it's for a boy. If it's for a girl, then do a cluster of balloons or a big bouquet of flowers (might be tricky as an applique ).

A kite would fit into the next blank square. Either balloons or kites would be fantastic.

I agree. Balloons would be terrific in so many different colors and patterns....endless. It's really cute.

Either kites or balloons or why not both? Your girl is adorable!
|
There are so many possibilites with this quilt: balloons, kites, flags and who knows what else ? so many possibilites just imagination at work ..
|
the pattern was also in the Old Stitch & Sew 1960's. I made for my little girl.
|
Glad you found the pattern and can finish the quilt. It's adorable and will make a lucky child very happy!
|
What a darling baby quilt this will make with bright balloons.
|
I agree with the balloons. It already looks like the bears are being lifted off the square! A few color balloons would make the bears come alive off the quilt!
|
Maybe an UMBRELLA?
|
OH, I thought you meant the dog - do I recognize what kind it is? No, what kind is it?
The quilt is cute, too! |
I agree ! That would be sooo... cute! Cute quilt!
|
What about colorful 3-D windmills on a stick, like what kids play with.
