Patrick's Mommy wanted a "woodsy-ish" themed quilt and with that in mind we unintentionally selected some organic fabrics from Monalunna Fabrics and Birch Fabircs to be used in a chevron pattern. I hadn't worked with organic fabrics until this quilt and I had been curious as to what they would be like to work with. In the end, I found the fabrics just as easy and affordable as a regular high quality quilting cotton.
This adorable little quilt has been on my "wait-list" since last summer when little Patrick made his way into the world. The quilt was received today and now I can finally share! Patrick's Mommy wanted a "woodsy-ish" themed quilt and with that in mind we unintentionally selected some organic fabrics from Monalunna Fabrics and Birch Fabircs to be used in a chevron pattern. I hadn't worked with organic fabrics until this quilt and I had been curious as to what they would be like to work with. In the end, I found the fabrics just as easy and affordable as a regular high quality quilting cotton. For the quilting I decided to use straight-line quilting in random widths to replicate bark on a tree. To complete the "woodsy-ish" theme, I used a birch tree fabric on the entire back. I am so incredibly happy with the final result. It is a beautiful, soft and bright quilt for Patrick to enjoy for years to come!!
