EEEK! This is finished.
Well, it's been finished but Mother Nature decided it really wasn't spring
and granted us more snow...which I'm pretty sure I didn't ask for.
This quilt was done with the 'Looking In' pattern from the most talented Allison of Cluck Cluck Sew.
She is awesome...I had a question on another pattern I've been trying to work on, the Pow Wow pattern and I emailed her and she wrote me right back! Super awesome!
Of note: I SUCK at reading patterns. I don't have the gift to understand patterns and/or follow ANY directions. Haha.
I used a super soft pink cuddle fabric.
This melts against you, like sleeping under a pink magical cloud of awesome-ness.
Although, to be honest...I HATE sewing with minky and cuddle fabric.
It drives me mad.
But, we got through it...barely.
I will do a short tutorial later on HOW I suffered through this and some tips I found to help. :)
That's for you Kristy!
(Kristy says she looks at my blog, but we'll see) hahaha.
So cute - the binding is a pink/white checkered print.
There are several novelty fabrics inside the 'windows'. I love the darker pink with the bunnies and bears.
Super fun for I-Spy.

This is really darling - I love all the pink, light, dark and prints. I'm not really into pink but this is so cute. I think it's changing my mind about pink. And I want to hear more about the tips on quilting minky. That would be a big help.
ReplyDeleteps - I'm following you.
ReplyDeleteThe gingham,dots and yellow are so pretty:)
ReplyDeleteAs the mom of three bots...this is uber sweet!
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! and I think the backing is just perfect. Love your bunny in the sidebar too...we were just enjoying bunnies at the pet store yesterday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty quilt. I just love the cuddly fabric on the back.
ReplyDeleteVery cute quilt! The colors are fun!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is adorable! I've never sewn with minky but it sure is worth the extra effort!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun girly quilt for a little one. I can imagine the minky is a beast to work with - I am right now working with slippery sheer fabrics for a princess outfit and keep asking myself - WHY?! But we do it because we must! :)
ReplyDeleteSo adorable! It looks so cuddly, the end result is well worth your efforts.
ReplyDeleteI'm about to back a quilt in minky, so I could use all the tips I can get. I have this feeling it's going to be an awful experience. Love this, though! So fun!
ReplyDeleteThis such a cute quilt! I love those little novelty fabrics peeking through the windows :D. The checkered fabric for the binding is the perfect final touch!
