Heidi’s Special Vintage Quilt

Excited to share this stunning quilt with you!!

Heidi was given some of her grandmother’s hand embroidered dresser scarves and pillowcases, and she decided to make a beautiful quilt with them after seeing a quilt from Elsie Grays in Australia. She ordered precut diamonds in the most gorgeous fabrics from Elsie Grays, which was a fun shipment for her to receive in the US.

Then she fussy cut the scarves and pillow cases, and let me tell you…this quilt is such a keepsake. I love the texture and details those stitches add, plus it’s a piece of her grandma.

If I had these precious heirlooms, I would make one too.

Heidi chose Patricia Ritter and my Haven panto design for the quilting. She wanted something loose and swirly. It’s a great choice. Haven is available at Urban Elementz : https://www.urbanelementz.com/haven.html

I used cream Omni thread from Superior Threads and 8020 cotton poly blend batting from Winline Textiles which is based out of Utah.

Look at those embroidery details. 💕

Happy quilting! Leisha
