Quilt Updates

My good friend Mary and her husband just welcomed in their first baby to their home... a sweet baby girl named Tilly Joy. Well, since I'm honored to be sharing a middle name with little Miss Tilly, I am making her a quilt. I had Mary go through my pinterest board for inspiration on what she wanted and because Mary loves all things western... mule rides, mountains, and cowboy boots... it was no surprise to me that she saw this feather quilt and loved it. The feathers make it look native american inspired, but they also look like pine trees to me... I think it's super sweet, for this girl who will grow up riding mules and wearing her own little cowboy boots.

Here's the beginning of some of the feathers... I'm doing each feather a different color for a whimsical rainbow look!



And here's some other fabric I couldn't resist buying... I love these western prints. They'll make a cute cowboy patch work quilt one day. For now I just like them stacked up and sitting beside me, so I can look over at them and give them a wink (because I have a crush on them).
