Lil’Arthur’s quilt is finished in record time…and it is adorable!! (That is ALWAYS a surprise!! :o))
I ended up doing some BIG hand stitching around his name for added POP…and it worked! Just the right touch, don’t you think?
Not to worry…I tested the RED perle cotton to make sure it wouldn’t bleed! (I soaked a large piece of the thread in a bowl of hot water then laid it onto a piece of paper towel…and no colour bled off…)
Simple but effective, clean and fresh…and after it’s washed it will be soft and crinkled!
I ended up meander quilting it. Then I put on a scrappy binding using blue, yellow, red and green wee polka-dot fabric.
SEW there you have it! Arthur now owns a quilt that will forever be HIS! I sure hope he likes it!!

Adorable little quilt! And the big stitch really made it all pop. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat little quilt is the bomb. Wow! LOVE the big stitch around the name and the minkie on the back will make it an absolute favorite. Better be careful, you might have return business! lol
ReplyDeleteI think Aurthur and his mom are going to be delighted with his quilt. Love the big stitch accent.
