Liberty quilt blocks
Tuesday, November 29, 2011
I've never been a huge fan of Liberty in quilts strangely enough. But when I saw the cute little Liberty blocks from Film in the Fridge I fell in love. With no shortage of Liberty offcuts it seemed like a must that I give these a go myself.
And so I did.
I think I'll make a simple doll quilt for Adelaide. Something quick and easy. I already have enough of these little blocks to make a doll sized quilt.
Just another Christmas deadline. But for now, I'm off to make up a pile of creche bags that my customers are patiently waiting for.
Cannot wait to see the finished quilt!!

Very sweet. I think you're right and that liberty won't work on quilts due to its small scale pattern. You never see a furnishing fabric with such a small scale print on it for that reason. It does look lovely as the little bands on the quilt blocks as you've done.
I have also been meaning to thank you so very much for the beautiful creche bag you made for me. I gave it to Eliza last weekend (my God daughter), and her mother just loved it. I had filled it with goodies for her first Christmas present and it was a much appreciated gift.

You constantly amaze me - your patience is reaching epic proportions.

Quite simply adorable, Kristine ... I think this is appliqued?
