My version of "Cottage Romance"
 

Last year a blogger "bailey" posted a pic of a quilt she had just finished and it was so beautiful that I knew I had to make one. We had just moved and I loved the color of the master bedroom and all of the fabrics in her quilt would match it so beautifully. I contacted her to see where she got the pattern and she very graciously told me the name of a book that it was in. I started searching the internet right away and found on on Amazon and purchased. Then I set about find my fabric. Some that I used are like hers but others are different. I also wasn't brave enough to do the scalloping on the edges but think that that really makes the quilt. I finally finished mine today and am sooooooooo happy with it. I had my LA quilt it and he did a beautiful job. I got it home, trimmed it and got to work on the binding. It took me forever to hand sew the binding down on the back of the quilt.......BUT it is done and I am so happy. In this pic I still have to finish my shams but was so excited I couldn't wait to get it on the bed. Thank you "bailey" for posting your pic and for giving me the name of the book the pattern was in. I LOVE my quilt and it fits in my bedroom so nicely!!!!!!

It is very beautiful! Understand your excitement.

Oh, I remember her quilt-loved it! Love yours,too-beautiful, soft colors. It looks soooo beautiful on your bed!!

very nice job its pretty!!!

Oh wow, this is so pretty.

Wow beautiful quilt, great quilting! would you share the name of the book? I would love to make one.

I have slowly been collecting fabrics to make a top like yours. Lovely.

That's lovely. And it looks great on the bed.

beautiful and romantic. Your colors are great. You did a wonderful job.

Oh your quilt is soooooo pretty and the quilting is perfection. I love it. I think one of the fabrics at least is exactly the same. The large roses. As for not having finished the shams - well, I haven't even started mine - still just thinking about them so you are way further ahead. LOL There are a few members (I know for sure one is well on its way and it is beautiful as well)making this quilt and I can hardly wait to see all of them. Are there any more Cottage Romances on the way? You know I just may have to make another in totally different colors.

I will jump in and let you all know the name of the book is "Better Homes and Gardens Scrappy Quilts".

You have every reason to be happy and proud of this quilt. It is beautiful - romantic.

So pretty and feminine./lissa

Beautiful quilt!

Beautiful quilt. Lovely soft colours.

beautifully done

Oh, all my favorite colors. What a beautiful quilt and great job.

Hi, I, too, fell in love with this quilt and want to make it. Bailey sent me a drawing of the two blocks with fabric cut requirements. She forgot the book it was in. Could you help me out on where you got your fabrics and how much of each one I will need? Also, I have looked everywhere to find the pretty roses fabric to no avail.

You out did an amazing job on your quilt. Thanks so much for sharing it with us. Please message me with any info; book it is in, fabrics you used by name or where you got them. Thanks so much.

Yeah, the name of the book and the fabric I having a hard time finding. Where oh where did you two find it? It is the basic fabric for this quilt. Love it.

nice

I really like the very soft look

Such a beautiful quilt!

bailey.....thanks for posting the name of the book. I LOVE that book and will probably make another. I tried to pick some fabrics that were not the same as yours, but your colors so matched my room that I stayed with the general concept. Thank you again for your info on the book. I wish I had been able to do my own quilting but for one thing it was just too big to handle and for another it is just too hard to do much quilting on my sewing machine. I have done some smaller projects and enjoy that but not the bigger quilts.
Thanks everyone for your comments.....would also love to see more "Cottage Romance" quilts pictured.

Thanks everyone. "bailey" posted the name of the book in her comment but here it is again. It is "Better Homes and Gardens Scrappy Quilts". I was able to find it on Amazon.com. It has quite a few quilt patterns in it and a couple more that I would like to make.

could you share the book...would love to make this lovely quilt!

oh, just saw the book posted! sorry...thx

Love the soft colors. Beautiful, and the quilting is awesome.

Success! I found a piece of leftover fabric that had the salvage still on. The line is Robert Kaufman "Pristine". That is for all the roses type fabric then just add some of your stash to match. Good Luck to anyone looking, hope you can find some.

What a beautiful quilt.

It is very beautiful. Love the soft colors and rose print!

That is beautiful! So comfortable and peaceful looking. Would be happy to sleep under it! :-)

Pretty quilt! It looks great on that bed! :)

I adore this quilt. It's exactly the pattern I'd like to use for my very own Cottage Romance. Normally, I don't use pastels and florals but this truly speaks to me. I love the soft colors you used and the quilting is just made for it. Now I'm on the hunt to find the BH& G pattern book. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous quilt and for giving inspiration.

Very pretty and lovely fabrics.

It is sort of like Turning Twenty or Yellow Brick Road if you want the look without buying the book. It is her fabric choices that make it so spectacular.

Your quilt and bedroom look beautiful!!!

It turned out beautiful and I love the colors!

The color is so soft and soothing, just beautiful!!!!

Beautiful! So soft and pretty!

I love this pattern. Your quilt is beautiful. I bought the magazine on Amazon and am now searching seriously for the pink roses fabric. Not having any luck. I will keep searching. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.

aww. so pretty

Love your colors
