Finished, sent received and LOVED!!! I used some fat quarters and some fabric cut to fat quarters by me. Seattle fabric was not generally available around here of course, so I grazed the interwebs. ETSY had a nice little shop on Whidbey Island called
Undercoverquilts, and that shop had this lovely Seattle print! I wanted that theme for these two quilts, as my grands grew up in that area. Also I needed a masculine sort of quilt - no florals for the guys!
Primary colors set this off I think, and the binding is from eQuilter, and is called Splatter 108 inch backing.
Those primaries really made a good binding for the Seattle Quilt! I used my Elna 720 for the sewing and quilting, and Warm and Natural and Hobbs batting - 100% cotton of course. The backing is flannel in blue shaded prints. All in all it took me quite awhile to get these made. Designed by me. :)
How perfect for the Washington boys. Glad they loved it. It's so nice and colorful.
