For our sweet Ruby
If you were following along on my instagram in the spring, my mom and I were making two of these quilts. One for our sweet little Ruby and Penny. Ruby was coming soon and Penny just celebrated her first birthday. So we decided to make them twinning quilts. We should get a picture with them both.
This beautiful pattern is by Elizabeth Hartman and it’s called Crystal Cluster, and my mom has two kits which includes the pattern and binding, in her shop. We used other solid fabrics available in her shop, so we didn’t have to use one of her kits. Go to https://www.etsy.com/shop/sistersandquilters/ And see what they have available.
Here is miss Ruby, isn’t she absolutely adorable?!?!
We actually didn’t have a few of the colors in solid, so we actually used some ombré fabrics and it turned out so fun!!!
We used this fun speckled fabric from Ruby Star Society called Speckled from Rashida Coleman Hale for the background. I love the hint of sparkle from the gold flecks. My mom also has some in her shop.
The colors are so fun to have rainbowed around…such a fun pattern! It looks complicated, but the pattern comes together in such a fun way.
I used my favorite Natural White Omni thread from Superior Thread and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles.
We decided on the fun butterfly fabric from Ruby Star Society’s Stay Gold line by Melody Miller, and a soft pink dashed fabric by Gingiber in her Words to Live By line…for the binding.
Another view!
It’s fun to have two to take a variety of pictures with…
Like this.
I hope you enjoyed all the pictures of this beautiful quilt, and that sweet Miss Ruby!
