We had about four inches of snow the other day, the biggest storm we've had this winter, I think. Florida has had more snow this year than Maine, lol. Bad news for skiers and snowmobilers, but I'm glad about it. The cold is the bigger story--single digits and teens during the days and below zero a few nights this week.
This is a plain and simple little quilt called 'Allure', a 3-yard quilt design from one of Fabric Cafe's books. I finished the top last year and never got it quilted. Too plain maybe, but I wanted to use up these fabrics. I have another cut out, same white and blue, different floral print; both of which will be donated.
I used a pastel variegated thread to quilt it, which made it a wee bit more interesting.
This is the next top to get loaded for quilting soon as I put a backing together; I finished this top last year too, and I'm just getting caught up with some machine quilting. This is the 'Phoebe' pattern from kitchentablequilting.com, but I set my blocks together in a completely different way. This is a larger quilt than 'Allure', so I plan to donate this one to the Veterans Home in Augusta.
This is what the original 'Phoebe' pattern looks like. Maybe I'll make this layout another time.
Oh! I'm in love with your layout of Phoebe! It's more attractive than the original design. I'm adding it to my to-do list as a gentleman's quilt, in brown or green. Bravo! ;^)
