Telly Quilt

String Bean's telly quilt.

I decided to make the kids some small lap quilts to use on cold winter mornings when they get up early to watch TV. Well String Bean's has ended up becoming nearly a single bed sized quilt! Not a lap quilt at all really.

Her quilt ended up being so big because the focal point was a series of 7 batik squares of gorgeous butterflies. To match in with her room decor of course.

I used a variety of stunning Japanese fabrics. All using the same tonal palette and incorporating a black back ground. The only exceptions were the strips used to boarder the main blocks. I chose a batik though.

Back of the quilt: strip quilting.

This quilt is fully reversible with a 'strip quilting' back. I had it machine quilted by the very talented Fran from Willow Patch Quilting. So finished at long last, argh I hate doing the binding & it always takes far longer than it should. Now off to start Fuzzy's telly quilt.
