Here are the pictures of my Herringbone baby quilt finished and offered to my niece in Paris.
The gray color recalls Paris' sky, the blue is for the baby boy and the yellow gives a sunny touch.
For this quilt I did 80 blocks of 4.5" x 4.5 each (11.5 cm)
To make the triangles I cut strips of 5" wide (12.7 cm) from each color, then squares of 5" (12.7 cm) and then cut diagonal to obtain 2 triangles.
The final size of the finished quilt is 32" x 40" (81.5 x 101.5 cm)
It is so lovely! Love the colours, very quiet yet not dull at all. Congrats on this charming finished.
ReplyDeleteOh, she is a lucky girl to be offered such a lovely quilt. I always enjoy seeing what you have made Christine, your choice of fabrics and colours are so modern, there must be great fabric shops in Paris.

ReplyDeleteThanks Sabrina!
Deleteles couleurs sont superbes, puis je vous demander de quelle collection font partie ces tissus ?
ReplyDeleteJoyeuses Fetes de fin d'année.
La plupart des tissus sont des "scraps" de différents designers, tous importes des USA.
DeleteBeaucoup font partie de la ligne Honor Roll de Anna Maria Horner pour Free Spirit, Artisan de Pat Bravo pour Art Gallery, Cloud 9, Birch Fabrics, Michael Miller...

DeleteBeautiful! The color choices couldn't be better, and I love that your herring bones are 'mix & match'.
ReplyDeleteThanks Robby! The "mix & match" is always a chalenge for me but I think that it is more interesting than using the same colors and the result is as well more interesting.
DeleteBeautiful, beautiful quilt! I love the colors and the quilting! I have a first grandchild arriving in 2017 and am looking for inspiration for baby quilts! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteCharmant : plein de tendresse et tellement moderne; comme toujours réussi !
