Effervescence Quilts
4 Attachment(s)
Mother and daughter quilts gifted across the pond to England. Sent these two quilts to my son's girlfriend and her mum for Xmas. They were great fun to make. Used velour for the backing and it came out very nice. Used 1/2 inch batting, gold thread on the top and black on the bottom. Hope they enjoy them. Primary fabric was Fabric Freedom's Camden Cafe, designed in London.

Thank you ALL so much for your kind words and encouragement. I appreciate so much you taking the time to comment. So nice to have encouragement when we step out of our comfort zone and try new things. I had never used velour for a backing before. Also, worried about gold thread on top and black on bottom.....thinking if tension was off just a bit it would have pokies on one side or the other. Amazingly, it all worked for a change! Thanks again. L

My eyes are playing tricks on me again, but I do have glaucoma and macular degeneration...are the blocks made with charms, or diamonds? I have a bunch of charms on hand and have been trying to decide what to do with them. Your quilt is gorgeous! Thanks for posting pictures.

Sew beautiful! Love the colors! Surely wonderful gifts~
|
Oh my kind of colors. It looks really nice including the quilting
|
Classy! Did you quilt it on a longarm or DSM? Also curious about what you used for batting.....
|
What great quilts, and using velour for a backing will make them super comfy.
|
Did you have any trouble with the velour stretching or pulling out of shape? I love the look and the idea, but I've found that using minky means migraine. was just wondering about the velour?
|
Beautiful pattern and fabrics. They'll be cherished, I'm sure.
