Perfect 10 - Owls

The adorable quilt belongs to Sheri. She requested my "Hedwig the Owl" panto and I think it was the perfect choice.

The pattern is called "Perfect 10" by Swirly Girl Designs. Sheri made this as part of a paint chip challenge at her guild.  I think she did a great job working with the bold color combinations she was given.  I love the focus fabric - the owls are awesome!

You can see in the back of this photo that my garden owls have started to emerge from their winter snow fort, but we still have a long way to go before we see anything like green grass!

Fox Trails

 Fox Trails (from Riley Blake) is the name of the absolutely adorable fabric line that Michele used in this quilt for her young son.  I think she chose a great pattern that allows you to enjoy the prints without being too busy.

Michele is the first client I have had that has found me online, so design decisions by email it was.  Michele wanted a fun panto that went with the cute woodsy camping theme in her fabrics.  She was leaning towards the "Hedwig the Owl" panto.

I thought the owls would look great, but just didn't feel right about quilting so many large flowers on a quilt for a little boy, so I suggested swapping the flowers out for stars.  That sealed the deal for Michele.

I just love all these cute prints.

Michele used two contrasting fabrics on the back for a little fun, and the owls show up best on the soft green.

 Thanks for trusting me with your quilt Michele.  I'm sure you son will be very excited to have it on his bed!
