I always love the magazine photos…everything is so beautifully color coordinated…I really think I need to make yellow pillow shams for this quilt when it comes home! As for fabrics for the quilt, I used fabrics by Kate Spain, Amy Butler, Anna Maria Horner, Joel Dewberry, and Denyse Schmidt. The backing (which you can see a peek of in the above photos) is one of my favorite prints from Happy Go Lucky by Bonnie & Camille. I went with a scrappy binding to set it off!
Natalia Bonner did the custom quilting for me last September…and on a very quick timeline (just as I’m sure she was getting knee-deep in market quilts). Natalia’s quilting is stunning as always…and it was so much fun to have her send me a few photos while she was quilting!
