About the Cover Quilts

Two-Color Version

I made the lap, two-tone version using FreeSpirit Solids in Red, Winter White.

I quilted the quilt using matching Aurifil thread with a stipple pattern (the stipple in the white was tighter and more dense than the red). A red/white striped fabric cut so the lines would be on the bias finished off the quilt as the binding.

I love a red and white quilt and it looks great on my couch!



Multi-Color Version


Andover generously supplied the fabric for the cover version. The prints were from the Natalie collection by Giucy Giuce which were paired with Century Solids, all by Andover Fabrics.

Shelley of The Carpenter's Daughter Who Quilts made the quilt and Rachel of Carpenter's Daughter Quilt Shop quilted the quilt in an allover stipple. Shelley did such a wonderful job making the quilt!






PATTERN DETAILS

Festive Bows is a fun twist on a bow design that could work in both holiday and other fabrics. 

The confident beginner pattern contains both multi-fabric and two-tone versions each in two sizes: throw and queen. The queen size is a scaled up version of the throw size.

The multi-color, throw size version is fat quarter friendly.









ADDITIONAL COLORWAY RENDERINGS

I love seeing how the quilt pattern looks with different colors, prints, backgrounds and more. It gives me an idea of the versatility of the design and it is so fun to see the different options.










MANY THANKS

I would like to thank Yvonne @Quilting Jetgirl for her amazing tech editing skills, Andover Fabrics for the fabric, the Warm & White batting from the Warm Company, 50 wt. thread from Auriful, and Shelly for making a cover quilt, and Rachel for the quilting.
