Bloggers Quilt Festival

As some fellow quilters may know Amy from Amy's Creative Side is hosting a Bloggers Quilt Festival where she is showcasing quilts submitted by talented fellow quilters. 

I would like to share with you 'Bubbles & Ruffles'.

I know It's not a new quilt but it is one that makes me smile as brings to my mind fun times, summer and a beach photo shoot that ended with my little girl waist deep in the ocean. :) Fun times!

So if you have a few spare hours (or days ;p) you should seriously head on over to Amy's Creative Side now and check out the many talented people out there with wonderful quilts and designs!  You will not be disappointed!

Bubbles & Ruffles

On Saturday I was able to get some more photos of my quilt and have now got some good photos to share (I am not a photographer by any means!). It was another overcast day so the water was not as beautiful and blue as I wanted but the sun did peek through a little – just enough to get what I needed.

And so I bring to you:

Bubbles and Ruffles

I LOVE this new quilt. (It’s my new favourite – how many favourites can a girl have?!) What do you think?



‘Bubbles & ruffles’ employs a trapunto method that adds dimension to the raw edge appliqué bubbles. Beautiful ruffles or jumbo ric rac give a chic look making this a modern, fresh and fun quilt to make and enjoy.'

I made the green and blue quilt a little while ago (which I love – blue is my favourite colour) and decided to have it made again (by mum) in a different colour scheme and alternatively uses ruffles instead of the ric rac.

I love the bright summer colours in mum’s version. When I first saw it finished I have to admit I was starting to lean towards liking hers more! :s

I am sure no matter what colour you choose for your quilt you will be impressed by the stylish modern design and may even want to take it everywhere!

For the back I pieced together some left-over fabrics to make it reversible.

The blog will be a bit quiet as I am off to the AQM for the weekend :)
