a carousel for Christmas
 
1 Attachment(s)
I saw this pattern at a quilt show, thinking it would be great for my 8 yo DGD who loves carousels and horses, but didn't buy it at the time. Later on, I decided I had to have it, so went to the LQS to see if they had it. They didn't, but offered to see if they could get it. They were unable to locate it, so I ended up finding it online. I honestly tried to support my LQS, but unfortunately the way things are going, I think we're going to be buying more and more online. Anyhow, here is the finished quilt. I sure hope she likes it. I decided I should make two, since I have two DGDs.

The name is carousel, and can be found at WWW.prqc.com.

Cindy60545 10-17-2012 04:19 AM

As soon as I saw the picture I knew it was a Pacific Rim pattern, I've done several of theirs. Great job on this one!

Blinkokr 10-17-2012 04:20 AM

Terrific, great job and thank you for sharing
Have a Blessed day

It's beautiful! Is it done by needle turn or machine applique or raw edge or is it your choice? I have a niece who loves carousel horses as well.

DeAnne-Mn. 10-17-2012 04:55 AM

Thank you for sharing this beautiful quilt, you did a beautiful job on it. I just ordered the pattern so I could make one for a dear friend who collects carousels but is unable to use her hands to make her own. I know she will love it, hopefully as a Christmas present. I,m recovering from arm surgery and as soon as cleared by Dr. [3 more weeks in sling] I'll get started on it. Again, thank you for sharing your talent and pattern with everyone.

Sewfine 10-17-2012 05:02 AM

What an awesome quilt for Christmas. You did a wonderful job. My BFF collects carousel. I will put this on the to do list. Thanks for sharing.

OH MY GOODNESS but this is stunning!!! So different and so effective. Those were large pieces to cut and applique. We NEED to see the next one, too!!

MimiBug123 10-17-2012 06:28 AM

You had definitely better make two! If not, the other DGD will be sooooo jealous. You did a beautiful job!
