I finished the quilt last week, it is a disappearing nine-patch, which is pretty quick, especially when I cut out 7" blocks for the nine patch.
Today I painted some old shutters the blue color for a corner in her room, she is going to hang pictures on them like these shutters. I would like to find a cute chair, paint it white and cover the seat in the large floral fabric for in front of the shutters.
To finish it off we are going to find a large canvas at Hobby Lobby and paint it then add vinyl to make a faux headboard.
Finally, I think some pillows like these will be perfect with the bit of leftover scraps I have.

Clothes sewing update.... I just finished a tunic for me. Pictures tomorrow.
That quilt is lovely. I know she'll love it. I keep saying that I want to make a quilt for my bedroom, and my husband keeps asking for something lighter to put on the bed during the warmer months. I really need to start thinking about that.
ReplyDeleteOh, pretty. I just finished a dress for my dd out of the same fabric, 5 prints, in the pink/orange.
