It's been four months since my "Sweet Tweet" quilt was featured in Australian Homespun magazine and now the pattern is ready and waiting in my shop for those who were unable to find the magazine but would love to stitch their own version of "Sweet Tweet"!
At 36 inches square the quilt is perfect for a baby or toddler, but is equally delightful hung on a wall or over your knees as a lap quilt...
It actually sews up rather fast as the blocks are mainly applique with a little backstitch, running stitch and a few cross-stitches...
...and the patchwork sections are only squares with a few straight borders! Not difficult at all. I like simple, don't you?
It's a very happy quilt and sure to put a smile on the face of whoever you make it for - or maybe it will be yours and your own heart will be overflowing with warm and fuzzies?
The fabrics I used were from various Lecien "Flower Sugar" prints and they definitely added to the sweetness, but mostly I think the birds are the star of this quilt, don't you?
You can get your pdf copy of the "Sweet Tweet" pattern HERE in my shop today!
happy stitching,

It looks so pretty in your colors ... I might have to try Jenny colors for this one! Thanks for another great design and making it available to those who can't get the magazine.
ReplyDeleteLove this! I especially adore the quilting in the bird blocks. Was it done by hand or machine?
ReplyDeleteVery cute. Great fabric choices.
ReplyDeleteDebbie, it was machine quilted by a local lady. She did exactly as I asked and even exceeded my expectations. :-)
ReplyDeleteI too love your birds! This is absolutely gorgeous! The stitches are perfect! I love that your work is so uplifting and beaming with love! Opening your emails are blessing to me. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMay God continue to bless you and your family.
