Remember this quilt ? I finished my Single girl quilt in April 2011 but whilst doing it had decided that I wasn't going for a king sized one and kept some of the pieces aside for a smaller baby sized quilt.
So the other day I got the urge to revisit the single girl pattern by Denyse Schmidt and started stitching. I so love this pattern and the
quilt I originally made is a much loved sofa companion of mine. The solids I am using in this quilt are Klona and were in fact the first fabric giveaway I had ever won ! Klona (not Kona) is available here in the UK at Backstitch. They have a wonderful array of colours and whilst the fabric is at first a little tougher to the touch than Kona it becomes after a few washes very soft and smooth.
Happy weekend stitching is coming up.
I love the single girl pattern - I never found a copy! Would you consider selling yours when you've finished with it??
ReplyDeleteGil,
Deleteit is available for purchase directly from Denyse Schmidt and I have put a link on my blog post to the side.
It is also available from Pink Chalk Fabric http://www.pinkchalkfabrics.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2558
and lily Bella fabrics http://www.lilybellafabrics.com/Single-Girl-Quilt-Pattern--Denyse-Schmidt_p_1462.html and I am sure quite a few other shops too.
Lovely! I really like using Klona, the stiffness makes everything more stable to sew, and after washing, as you say, it softens up a treat xxx
ReplyDeleteThe neutral is brilliant against the brighter solids! Looks great.
ReplyDeleteThose are very fun blocks, it will be a lovely quilt.
