It's that time of year again! The Blogger's Quilt Festival is so much fun! There are so many fun and beautiful quilts to admire. I can spend hours looking through all the links.
I wanted to share my New Wave Love quilt that I made this summer.
I wanted to share my New Wave Love quilt that I made this summer.
And the fabric came from a sweet lady on Etsy plus some Kona Khaki from Joann.
I used 12 fat quarters, but the dimensions didn't quite work out the way the pattern explained. I like to prewash my fabric, so once i did that, I couldn't get the full 9" shape. 8.5" works just fine and left me enough extra for 2 more rows!
I pieced the back with leftovers and an extra half yard of my favorite Amy Butler pattern. Then, machine quilted in the ditch to make a beautiful wave design on the back! This was the first quilt I've made using my walking foot. What a difference!!!
Here's the label that I made. This is the first time I've ever used a selvage! I think it looks great!
I can't get enough of this quilt!!
Ooooh, I adore that label! And the back of the quilt? Wow, this quilt is gorgeous from every angle :)
