Red Velvet Quilt made with Black Dress 2 fabric

This is what I was  working on last week !

 I fell in love with the Black Dress 2 fabric and knew I wanted to make a quilt with it.    I used 1 layer cake ,black grunge fabric for the black points and ivory grunge  to add to the the X blocks and border . Both from these are from this  line of fabric and really compliment the fabrics.

 I have decided on this fabric for the border .  I have ordered it and it should be here soon . It is black with tan .

The pattern I used is RED VELVET by Thimble Blossoms . I have had this pattern  for some time and have been waiting for just the right fabric to use.


Maybe I should name this quilt BLACK VELVET !


Happy Sewing

NANTUCKET

Another finish .....

Just finished the binding on Nantucket last night!

Oh how I LOVE this quilt !  I am So happy I made it !  The fabric is Midwinter Reds by Moda.  Just beautiful fabric to work with .

After I hung my quilt I decided I should keep with the Seaside Theme and brought out my treasures I have collected on my beach adventures

 The small jar holds my Sea glass and small shells and the large jar holds my  Sand Dollars  from Pismo Beach

  Mary of Quilt Hollow did a AMAZING job quilting this for me.  We chose Paisley & Feathers design because of the paisley fabric I chose for the backing  LOVE IT !!!

Here are a few pictures that Mary sent me before she mailed Nantucket back to me.

Have a Great weekend and Happy Sewing !
