Alice - The Quilt Pattern

That's right, Alice is finished and I think she has turned out so pretty!  Who said blue and green should never be seen?


This was such a fun quilt to make, I've really enjoyed playing with my green/blue fabric scraps, and piecing simple blocks with a great effect.


And just like any other quilt, Alice deserves a fancy back.  The Owl fabric is by Australian fabric designer Saffron Craig, and was just the perfect size and color for the back of this quilt.


For binding fabric I have chosen a Kaffe Fassett Spot ~ an aqua dot on chocolate brown.  It ties in well with the back of the quilt,  and adds a bold frame to the overall quilt top.


And the good news is that I have written a quilt pattern for this quilt.

 Alice ~ The Quilt Pattern is now available from my Etsy Store


I have also prepared several scrap fabric bundles which will help get started making this quilt, and will provide you with a color guide for further fabric selection.  I know that choosing fabrics can be a huge hurdle in getting your quilt started.  You can find the listing for the scrap bundles here. SOLD  Starter fabric bundles INCLUDES  the Alice ~ The Quilt Pattern.


Happy Stitching!
