I've had such a hard time deciding what I wanted to share in the Blogger's Quilt Festival, a quilt I made or a pair of quilts that lives in my house. Until recently I didn't really consider myself a quilter, since I've only made 3 in my life. I like to sew but quilting is a new thing. So I finally decided to share the quilt I just finished. It is currently all boxed up waiting for my next trip to the post office, where I will mail it off to one of my best friend's little girl.
I had originally intended to make the pinwheels just a light and dark of the same color but after making the blocks I thought it be more fun if they were mixed up a little bit so....
I got some help!
Thanks Amy for all the hard work you are doing and giving us all a place to share.
Cute!! Love the colors! And I love your little helper. I have 3 little "helpers" myself :D

Your helper did a terrific job of sorting those colourful blocks.
ReplyDeleteLove pinwheels. You have done a great job making this lovely quilt which is sure to be snuggled (a lot).
ReplyDeleteat first i thought the name of the quilt was aurelia--seemed appropriate for where you live!! and the colors seemed apt also. a lovely quilt, and a cute story with your little darling helping so much. pretty and well made
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your sweet comments! I do hope that this little quilt gets a lot of love.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the colors you chose. The dark sashing really makes the pinwheels pop.
ReplyDeleteI heard from my friend whose daughter I made it for and she was completely thrilled to receive it and put it to use!
