Florida Keys Baby Quilt - Quilt Fusion - Uncle Gravy
 
8 Attachment(s)
One thing I like about this board is we get to meet people with special talents. Uncle Gravy is one of those talents. I got to swap with him on a mini this past summer. He has a company called Quilt Fusion. It is a program that allows you to make appliques. I received a custom quilt order for a quilt to resemble things about the Florida Keys and one request was to have a map of the Keys. I was having issues with getting it sized correctly. Uncle Gravy took my order and sized my appliques for a 40 x 40 baby quilt. Easy instructions and love how it turned out. He even did the lobster, boat, pelican, and corals for me. Truly helped me fill in the blanks. Thank you Uncle Gravy.
I added the embroidery from Anita Goodesign and Embroidery Library with a couple from Embroidery.com (scuba Divers). My Pfaff did very well. Learned you must use the correct software to downsize patterns. These items on the quilt were requested by the customer. It is a special baby quilt.

So cute!!! My wife says the bicycle "screams" the keys. I haven't been but she said that was her biggest takeway, everyone used their bikes to get around.

That really came out wonderful!! Glad we could help.

Never been to the Keys but after looking at this quilt it looks pretty neat. You and Uncle Gravy did a super job. Love the waves in the water heck I love the whole thing. BrendaK

Love the quilt. Being a scuba diver myself I appreciate the authenticity of the fish. I can actually identify them! Very well thought out.

annette1952 11-23-2016 08:47 AM

Such a beautiful quilt! Great job!

Very pretty! Have been to Key West -- loved it! -- and these images bring back memories. Love your quilt!

QuilterMomma 11-23-2016 08:54 AM

Thank you all so much. The embroidery took quite some time. Love AnitaGoodesign embroideries and Embroidery Library. They really do look authentic when close up. I am hooked on fabric dyeing now as well. Now I know how to get that exact color.

That is absolutely adorable.

carolynjo 11-25-2016 10:58 AM
