So I told you I was going to show you another quilt using this simple design – how about two? I love this stripe from Lotta Jansdotter’s newest collection, Bella, and thought it might be a perfect stripe to use with this design. I love that the stripes are a bit irregular, and I really love it in this charcoal color.
One of my good friends recently had twin boys, so I paired that gray and white stripe with some solids in green and blue for the bottom portion, and with the opposite color for the middle stripe (matching, but hopefully not too matchy?)
I think they look quite nice together!
They each got some super soft Heather Ross Mendocino fish for the backing, and a fun binding
I had fun with a little more straight line quilting – single lines about 3/4″ apart for one, and a little twist on that for the second.
I hope these two new little boys will spend lots of time hanging out on these quilts!
