I used Elenor Burns, Trip Around the World Quilt book to make this twin size quilt for my grand daughters 15th Birthday coming up on July 4th. She likes pink.
I wanted it to be squishy and fluffly, so opted for Mountain Mist Medium Loft Polyester Batting, instead of the usual cotton batt. I also wanted soft looking quilting lines so used the orange peel quilting pattern around all the block edges, it turned out sooooo nice!
Even looks great from the back,
I'll definately be using this method again when I need a cuddly, squishy style quilt.
All the fabrics are 100% cotton, I did pre-wash the backing. I used Connecting Threads "Essential Pro" thread in size 70. I really like how my style of stitching comes out with this thread.
