My Boutique Flowers --Finished Quilt
 
4 Attachment(s)
I have had this folded up for a while and thought I would share it. It was my first time making up a quilt without any pattern. I wanted something that resembled flowers. This is the Boutique line by Chez Moi. I recently finished a quilt top using Couquette by Chez Moi as well. This was one of those times where you don't necessarily like all the colors in the line but you use them and then they look so much better than you thought they did originally (particularly the gold color I was not fond of).

Also, it is one of only a few quilts I have made for myself (I have given 5 others away as gifts and have a closet full of quilt tops that need to be quilted) that is completely finished.

I can see where the quilt has already been a bit distorted by being folded too long. I don't have a spare bed to stack my quilts on right now, so I will have to develop a method of rolling them to better preserve.

I really like how the dark blue binding frames the quilt. The backside fabric was my favorite print from this line and if I had more I would just make a whole quilt, front and back with just this fabric!! I have about 4 yards of this print in the pink color and played around with color photocopies of it to use for a OBW, but it is much prettier uncut so I didn't do that.

Thanks for looking.

What a delightful, feminine feeling quilt. I love the print you used for the backing too, it's gorgeous!

Very pretty garden. I did the same pattern but mine butted up against one another. Like the darker blue background. Really makes the flowers pop.

Wow, you did a fantastic job on this! You should be so proud of yourself!

SheriR 04-28-2014 06:45 PM

Very very pretty. I really like the gold too and I did have to laugh that you didn't use your four yards of pink because it's prettier uncut! How much fabric do I have that I just can't cut.....

sewingsuz 04-28-2014 07:35 PM

Love your cheery happy quilt!

tessagin 04-29-2014 05:58 AM

Love this quilt. I would just have them folded and displayed around the house or tucked in here and there. Maybe find an antique/older/vintage table with a shelf underneath and haphazardly folded there. Cabinet with tops displayed on doors (hanging).
I have some material I was going to use but not willing to cut up at this time, either.

JanieH 04-29-2014 10:32 AM

Gorgeous quilt - love your colors and agree with the beauty of the backing.
