Flower Power quilt

This quilt pattern is from the British magazine, Love Patchwork and Quilting, issue #10.  You can see my blog post from 2017 here.

I made this quilt in 2017 and just finished quilting it.  It will go in my grandchildren pile!


I love the large flower blocks, they showcase my "Gracie Girl" fabric,  designed by Lori Holt and named after her daughter whose name is Kassidy Grace.  Lori designed Kassidy's bedroom using this fabric line, you can see it here and here.  I totally forgot about the really cute quilts that Lori has for her Gracie Girl fabric, or any fabric for that matter.  I'll have to think about purchasing that pattern!


This quilt is called Flower Power and it's designed by Jeni Baker.


I backed this baby size quilt in a beautiful bubble gum color minky fabric.  You can see the way I machine quilted it too!  It wasn't very time consuming.  It's a large print and a small quilt :)


Whoever chooses this quilt also gets this cute table runner for their dresser.  I made it from the leftover half square "cut offs", the blocks are teeny, tiny.


I really love, love this fabric line.  I backed the table runner with cute clock fabric.


I haven't made the label yet, but I'm going to use this one :)


Join me again next Monday, I'll have another quilt for the grandchildren pile to show you ❤️

Flower Power Throw quilt

I made this quilt for a baby gift, but I loved it so much, I just couldn't part with it!
I used "Gracie Girl" fabric by Lori Holt.
I've been hoarding it and thought that this was the perfect pattern to show off all the pretty prints.


The original quilt had 20 squares, I cut mine down to 12, for a baby size, 42" X 56".
The blocks are 14", and each one uses a fat quarter.


I bought some pretty, soft pink minky to back it with.


Are you familiar with the Britsh quilt magazine "Love Patchwork and Quilting"?  
Each issue comes with a freebie, which is a bonus!
This book came with Issue #10.


It really is a perfect pattern to show off big prints!
The original quilt measures 56" X 70".
Jeni Baker is one of my favorites :)
