Chris’ Flamingo Quilt

Jun 16

Hello,
I have another fun quilt to share with you, but first, I want to mention I have something big for you happening on the 5th of July!!!! Watch for an email a couple days before, because if you’re a longarm quilter you will not want to miss it!!

My sweet friend Chris made this adorable quilt for her granddaughter! It the Easy Grid “Flamingo Sisters” pattern by Ten Sisters Handicraft. It’s actually on sale right now, and FREE!!

Chris’ 6 year old granddaughter Fiona, loves when Chris sends her videos of things she’s making, and even let her pick the pattern and fabrics for this quilt. She did a great job!! Hopefully someday she will sew along with her grandma. To add to the fun, I videoed the machine quilting her quilt and sent it to her. Which she loved seeing.

I love the variety of blues that Chris used! She’s an expert at intermixing the blue fabrics.

I used 8020 cotton poly blend batting, and an aqua thread.

We decided on Cupid, one of Patricia Ritter and my quilting designs for the quilting. It’s available at Urban Elementz. I think it turned out cute!! I love how the swirls and heart like feather soften the overall look of the quilt.
