Summerville

After making "Medley", I wanted to make another medallion quilt - I love how they go together once all the parts are made.  "Summerville" is a medallion quilt designed by Thimble Blossoms and I've used the same fabric ("Vintage Picnic") as in the original quilt with one navy blue added from another of Bonnie and Camille's ranges.   Not very often that I use the same fabrics but I had enough in my stash.

Stitched down the binding while watching lots of tv on Friday night.


The quilting design is called "Party Streamers" - another great design Karen found for me.

 

I love the backing fabric - it's such a pretty colour.


Most of Saturday was taken up with yukky housework etc and then family and a friend came over for dinner.  On Sunday the rain was back and it's been so terrible in Queensland and northern NSW (many of my friends have been house-bound for days) - I pretty much sewed all day and finished putting together the "Pretty Petals" quilt top.  Not a great night-time photo of the lovely colours in these FigTree fabrics.  I was so happy to be able to make this quilt completely from my stash.


The background is actually a very pale pink on off-white.


Karen spent yesterday afternoon quilting "Colorway" - chose "Party Streamers" again for the quilting.


Not sure what I'll work on next.

I love your beautiful Summerville quilt!! It's such a great pattern and so beautiful in the fabrics you've used. I'd pick Party Streamers quilting just for the name :) I know you'll find a fun project to work on next.
