Hello quilting friends! Today I’m excited to share my most recent quilting
finish: a Window Garden quilt for my bed! This quilt features two beautiful Tilda fabric collections I had been hoarding: Cabbage Rose and Memory Lane.
You may remember that I’ve
blogged about this quilt before, and I’ve been taking my sweet time with
it. Since I was making this quilt just for me and the hubby, it had no deadline and I worked on it between other projects. But now
this beauty is quilted and bound and laying on my bed. What a great feeling!
Now I have
a hankering to go shopping for some new throw pillows and maybe a fresh duvet
cover so that I can really "layer up" our bed and make it look
pretty. Hmmm, I wonder if Mr. Carried Away Quilting will join me on that
shopping expedition.
My friend and quilt shop owner Barb of Quilts on Broadway did the
machine quilting. I love the swirly,
flowing floral pattern that she used. It really suits this quilt.
Window Garden is a layer cake pattern, but as I explained in my February 7 post, it’s just as easy to
make this quilt from a favorite bundle of 10 fat quarters!
That is what I did with my Tilda version.
If you are looking for a fun layer cake pattern, I
hope you’ll give Window Garden a try. I’ve seen it made in many different
fabric collections, and it looks beautiful every time!
My original
Window Garden featured Olive's Flower Market by Lella Boutique for Moda. My
daughter quickly claimed this quilt for her college room.
If you are interested in
purchasing my Window Garden pattern, please visit your local quilt shop or one
of my blog sponsors. You can also purchase directly from me. Window Garden is available on my Etsy Shop. Quilt shop
owners: wholesale information is available here.
Thanks so much for stopping by
the blog today! I have three more quilts that I need to bind in the
evenings. I can’t wait to share those
with you too!
