More Applique Quilt Patterns to Come

Here are the latest photos of one of my most recent applique quilt patterns. Both machine applique and felt applique techniques were used to make this handmade quilt.

My daughter, husband, and I were out on a picnic one day, sitting on a handmade quilt given to us from Josh's Grandma. It got me thinking, and in the sunshine, with fine food and family, an idea came to me. What if I made a literal picnic quilt. From there I designed and created this fun little masterpiece, full of bright colors and sweetness.



Josh made these matching ceramic dishes and I made matching cherry print napkins to go along with this handmade quilt.  You can buy the whole set, along with a vintage picnic basket at The Artists' House Etsy Shop.  If you rather not purchase the entire set, the quilt is also for sale on it's own.




I'm currently working on the pattern for this handmade quilt.  Soon it will be available in my Etsy shop.


Yummy, don't you think?

Thanks Ladies. Your words mean so much to me. There is just something so special about a quilt; it's something that holds stories from every person and situation it comes in contact with. I do hope other people love and cherish their quilts as much as I do.
