Its been a typical January in the studio. Lots of clean up and organizing after the holiday rush, and also lots of finishing projects. I made this quilt as a wedding gift for my in-laws, now nobody bring up how long they've been married--I know, this is sooooo late! I made this snuggle quilt out of vintage prints and the red hearts are made out of velvet from the bridesmaids dresses that I made for this wedding.
The velvet hearts are my favorite part of it, such great texture and a great memory to have it in this "quilt of love". The royal blue print is a corduroy, and I'm tickled pink at how this all came together! Hopefully this brings out the romance in their lives by being taken to the beach for sunning, the fireworks for some sparks and in front of the fireplace for a movie night. Its just the perfect size for being close, not too big and not too little.
Next is a rag quilt out of Heather Bailey prints. This was a custom order and I just love how it turned out. These prints are so vibrant and pretty. The fraying effect adds such a snuggly texture to it, I just want to hit the couch with a book when I see a quilt like this. I'm sure this will be making a statement wherever it gets used, don't you think?!
I hope to take pictures of my clean studio to share with you soon. If that ever happens. Secretly I kind of like my beautiful mess. Shhhh! Don't tell huz. What are you working on this fine Wednesday?
