modern

  • Evangeline - I looked up the meaning of this baby name and it means "good news, bringer of good news".  People with this name tend to be orderly, a bit like the crosses in this quilt.  (Thanks Kate for the quilt name :)).  The crosses are described as modern vintage, I used modern fabrics, making them into traditional blocks of crosses and hourglasses. The fabrics are from my stash of pinks, watermelons, salmons and deep berry colours.  Perfect size for a single bed, or as a topper for a larger bed.  You could also hang it on the wall, though it will need a rod pocket.
  • I bought a new ruler - I have a ruler problem haha, so had to try it out.  This design was originally in red white and blue, but I pulled these pretty teal green and purple fabrics, complemented with grey grunge and a white, and got to work.  It is a very effective pattern, and so many possibilities. Its not huge, but would go over a lounge for snuggling under or as a topper for a Queen bed. And, don't you love it when the wind blows so the quilt looks wonky in the pic?  
  • This is a very large quilt and comfortably fits on a Queen sized bed with overhang.  The design of the quilt is called a braid, and in this case the colours flow across the width of the quilt in a chevron style design.
