What do you get when you combine a funky Jelly Roll, some gorgeous raspberry fat quarters, the old dependable white homespun and some input from Maddi (the most inspirational teenage I know!!!!!).......my new design, Teen Dreams:
This is a quilt and cushion combination and there is only a minimal leftover from the Jelly Roll, which makes me very happy!! Not only is this fun to make but Maddi is happy and its a great size for her to snuggle under to read, study and write that next great novel!!
Lots of simple piecing and applique make this a quick quilt to create and yehhh I have stippled it all over, I just love the effect!! The bindings are made from the left over Jelly Roll strips and they finish it off well.
This is my last design for 2009, Im taking the next few weeks to get ready for Xmas and to finish off a few quilt tops from my own personal collection.........so stay tuned, some of your favorites may become quilts very soon and Im also looking forward to starting Bonnies new mystery quilt! Anne Ida is doing this one with me and I know she has already pulled her gorgeous fabrics, Ill just wing it as I go!!! Should be heaps of fun!
So I have 2 copies of the new Teen Dreams pattern up for grabs!! Leave a comment on this post to enter. Good luck and stay tuned for the winners draw next week!!
Gosh looks like Maddie is going to be a designer too it looks great dont forget to tell Maddie. Hope forst comment wins one :-)

ReplyDeleteHi Rose!!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this quilt and pillow BUT although I can SEE why a teenager would love this quilt it could easily be loved by a grandma, baby or the 'in betweens'! Well done! Please throw my name into the hat as I would LOVE to make this quilt....and I'm not telling you which category I fit into....although I would LOVE to be a grandma!! Take care and thanks for the chance to win this lovely pattern!!
