Kite quilt completed!

For my 1st grandchild, due in January! It's not very soft and cuddly because the quilting is pretty dense, I wanted to try a few new things and got carried away.

Cute quilt! Congrats on the upcoming DGK! :)

Lovely Kite quilt and it can be used for tummy time!

ManiacQuilter2 07-03-2015 07:45 AM

Cute quilt. Love the colors. Maybe with many washing it will soften up.

Bluebonnets 07-03-2015 07:46 AM

That's beautiful!

Congrats on your grand baby! Would make a beautiful wall hanging if it fits their color choices for Baby's room. Otherwise it will be great to put down for creeper time-dense quilting means better traction!

Beautiful! You are fast but you have lots of time to make more! LOL.Minky on the back is super. Congrats Grandma!

Beautiful!! love the colors you used and the kites are perfect! Did you have a pattern for the kites or just wing it?

joyce888 07-03-2015 08:38 AM

Very pretty and I'm sure it will soften after a couple of washes.

Cute! Love the colors and the quilting. It's not what I expected when I saw "kite quilt."

Very cute quilt for your new grand baby!

Love this quilt and it's super cute too.

QM 07-03-2015 04:24 PM

Very pretty as it is. I agree that washing will help some.

mmeblue 07-03-2015 04:36 PM

Beautiful! I love log cabins, and the kites are adorable.

RedGarnet222 07-03-2015 04:56 PM

Good thinking to use the blue and pink in the quilt. Such a pretty quilt. When it gets washed, which it will repeatedly with a baby, the softness will happen. Don't worry. I personally think quilts that will get this much use needs to be heavily quilted to hold up!

So very delicate looking...

#1piecemaker 07-04-2015 05:51 AM

I think its very pretty! I bet it will be loved!

here's a closer view, FMQ on my DSM around the kites - I was aiming to create motion to show that the wind was blowing the kites around. For the center of the quilt I used a walking foot to spiral a circle out towards to edges.

annette1952 07-05-2015 04:21 AM

So pretty! I love the colors.

ontheriver 07-05-2015 04:54 AM

Very pretty.

Quilt bank 07-05-2015 05:04 AM

Beautiful quilt. Love the FMQ, such vibrant texture.

caspharm 07-05-2015 06:18 AM

It looks great! If it is too stiff for cuddling, it would make a great wall hanging.

juliea9967 07-05-2015 06:20 AM

Very nice quilt. You did a great job!

Love the whole quilt, but the kites really add interest and bring out the colors of the log cabin blocks. Adorable

Annz 07-05-2015 08:37 AM
