Striped Boy's quilt


This quilt was inspired by one Pottery Barn sold a few years ago.  I saw it at a friend's house, and really liked it.  I used cotton plaids, but I couldn't find the striped fabrics I had in mind.  Then I found some dish towels at Target that were just the right colors...


and I really like the texture it adds to the quilt.  The only issue is that the dish towels aren't holding up too well, so I have to trim snags every now and then.


I did the quilting 1/4 inch from the seams rather than on the seams.


Coming Soon...


A New Wave quilt in these fabrics from Ty Pennington's new collection, and some old Amy Butler fabrics.
