I've always wanted to try this one. Rather simple and straight forward - boxes and boxes of pink; alternating between lighter and darker pinks.
Pink polka dot backing fabric and yet another lighter shade of pink.
Nice! Am happy with the results.
Its taking me a long time, but I WILL GET THERE. Saw this 'Heart Quilt' design and thought I'd try it ......
..... got carried away and did a few hearts, then a few more, and a few more. It's not yet finished and am excited to see how it will turn out ;-). Will post the end result soon I hope.
Its a gorgeous panel of a teddy on a rocking horse. Could I resist it? Absolutely not! ;-)
Just added up a border of blue & maroon squares .....
...... quilted all the borders up .....
.... and complimented with a lit blue backing & yet another shade of blue for its binding.
A quick job. Love the results!
It was a fabric full of pictures of angels.
So I cut them up into blocks - 12 small blocks and teamed them up with maroon & grey. Finished it up with lite yellow.
Here's a close up.
A suitable yellowish fabric & back to the maroon fabric for its binding.
And its done. I'm not sure how I feel about this one .....
I finally found this quilt shop that I've heard others talking about - "Kelvin's shop"! Its located in ss19, subang jaya. I entered and found this lovely panel looking at me ;-). Its called 'The Secret Life of Fairies'.
I simply added a flowery pink border ....
.... and thought a pink polkadot backing & a purple binding would look great with it.
Done in a day!
This is a bed sheet from IKEA. Saw it and fell in love with it, brimming with ideas on how I could use it to make a quilt.
So I carefully cut up 8 different animal pictures into squares and teamed them up with various matching borders according to the colors of their cars.
Put alternating borders in between the gaps, an interesting blue strip as the outer border and finished it off with a 5" darker blue.
At the 4 corners, I put a blue flowered square, found a nice dark blue fabric for its backing and a lighter shade of blue for its binding.
I love it! So full of character .... dontcha' think?
This is the other half of the "Cats & Dogs II". There were 10 panels and I've made it into 2 different Cats & Dogs quilt. This is a girlie one.
Used 2 main colors - a darker pink and 2 different tone on tone beige fabric.
A matching polkadot pink fabric backing and a pink-ish binding.
Turned out pretty squarish.
Yes, its the twin to "the Green Hippo". Got it from IKEA.
Cut them up into squares of 6". Framed it up with white.
Finished it up with red polkadots, white binding and a suitable backing fabric.
Nice? Not bad huh!

And here's a girlie tin - gorgeous isn't it? Same concept - painted on and decoupage.
Same size as the boy's tin.
Set A : 1 Pink Baby Quilt
Set B : 1 Pink Baby Quilt
Ok heres something new - A friend painted this tin and did a bit of decoupage. Wanted a boy-ish tin.
Its quite big and spacious and so I thought I will fill it up with . . . .
. . . a quilt, . . . and a bear (all for a boy) . . .
. . . a flannel blankie, baby mittens, and 3 rompers - 2 short sleeve & 1 sleeveless.
The fabric was simply like this - in BRIGHT red.
It was so much red, so to break away from the red-ness, I thought I'd use the three colors of the animals - yellow, green & grey.
Made it up in big squares (8" x 10") and framed it with the three alternating colors.
A suitable backing fabric and a shade of light green for binding . . . and its done.
Seriously bright :-)
You're gonna love this one!
Gave her 6 blocks to work on. Oh dear, the pictures are horizontal. Sorry but I don't know how to turn it around :-)
Decided on a log cabin pattern in alternating shades of lite blue & dark blue all around the white blocks and found a nice dark blue fabric with whales and alphabets on it for its outer border.
A nice matching blue fabric for its backing and yet another shade of blue as binding . . . .
. . . . the end results - brilliant I thought! Love this one to pieces.
