I have a big reveal! My wonderful customer Kathleen, was kind enough to send pictures of her new queen quilt and pillow covers. It isn't often that I actually get to see what these wild and crazy quilts look like in someones home...so this was a treat for me!
First, I show a few pictures of the pillow covers. I must say, it is scary and difficult to make something custom. As for the pillow covers, well I relied on measurements that Kathleen provided me. Adding extra for seam allowances and shrinkage, I was sweating bullets hoping they would be the right size! And they were! You never know how much they will shrink, if any.
 |
| This was the littlest one. 12" x 24" |
 |
| #1~26.5" x 26.5" Square |
 |
| #2~26.5" x 26.5" Square |
 |
| Largest at 18" x 52.5" |
Just in case, I didn't put any of the fabric away. It certainly was possible that they wouldn't fit. And I wanted to be prepared. You know...just in case!
After receiving a lovely message and pictures...I sighed a huge breath of relief...blushed a little from the sweet compliments and began to relax and plan my next project!
And here is the Reveal!!! Thank you for putting up with my endless posts about this quilt project! It seemed to go on forever didn't it?
For me, this is the payoff. Seeing it displayed and having a very happy customer! I'm sure Kathleen will have many, many years of enjoyment and warmth from her very own, one-of-a-kind art piece!

ReplyDeleteGirl, that should be a requirement, that you get to see it in action once they've gotten their goodies. Beautiful work, Jayne, as always. xxoo
ReplyDeleteThat looks great! How kind of her to send you pictures of how it looks in her home.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so crazy, but so awesome on the bed and whew what a relief that everything fit perfectly!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! The colors really pop with the white background. The pillows really make it all work so well. So bright and fresh -- who wouldn't want to have your beautiful handiwork in their bedroom. You inspire me to try improv but I'm just not that brave --- yet. Well done as usual.
