This quilt is for Hannah, my cousin-to-be down in Georgia. Hannah will be the first baby born amongst the eight cousins on my mom’s side. Can’t wait to meet the little one!
Made from men’s dress shirts, this is probably the most amount of colors I’ve ever used in a quilt. The back is two yards of Liberty of London, which seems to be my fabric of choice for making baby quilts.
A huge thanks to my dear friend Ayça for being the model behind this quilt. She has the strongest fingers and most quilt holding endurance of anyone I know. We photographed the quilt together around our Brooklyn neighborhood last weekend, cheering up the slushy snow from recent storm Nemo.
Beautiful! I love how the colors are muted on one side and bold on the other!
Thanks whittymomma! I picked up the backing fabric after the patchwork was done – and I’m so happy with it!
Stunning work!
Thanks!
Lovely! I bet that will be one of Hannah’s favorite blankies!
Thanks Emily! I hope she likes it!
Great pics! Great design! Hannah will be so happy that her Auntie KirstenJane.com is keeping her warm at night.
The only thing better than Burrata is knowing that Hannah will be snuggling in this quilt at night.
