At the bottom of each blog post are three little picture boxes that will lead you back to an archived post. Â Just the other day, I saw one from my Perkiomen Daydreams quilt….I think this ranks up there of the quilts I am most proud of that we didn’t design.
.
You may recall that is the third one Kelli and I made. Â We made two previous to this one. Â You can read about them here.
Can you believe we have one more of these in the works?? Â It’s for Kelli. Â We gave two away..one to our son Buck and one to our daughter Kayla.
Anyway, about a month ago Karl said to me boy mom..I really like that quilt. Â If you ever make me another quilt, I want it to be that one.
Can you believe just last week Kalissa said to me, if Craig and I get married, I think we want a Perkiomen Daydreams quilt for our wedding quilt…REALLY???
I guess I am not done making these yet…I think I better start collection some yellow fabric. Â I know we were running low on yellow 1 1/2″ strips. Â One thing I do like about the quilt is that it’s really fun to throw a party and just mindlessly sew strip sets together. Â It worked great for me as a pinning project when we traveled too. Â Yep, I’m up for making another!!..but three more…..yes…I guess, how can a mom say no.
If you’re looking for the pattern you can find it in Bonnie Hunter’s book, Scraps and Shirttails book one.
Jo, that quilt is truly a masterpiece and to make it multiple times, unbelievable! Perhaps I’ll make one when I retire, many, many years in the future!
Since most of my stash is civil war reproduction fabrics, instead of yellow, I used fabrics in the mustard to gold to cheddar range, which gave it a more subdued look, but I love it. There is also one on Pinterest done entirely in 1930s prints which is beautiful! Good luck on doing this one again . . . And again :)
Five kids…five quilts. I made one of these, and it was quite an accomplishment. I don’t have kids, so I get to keep mine. One was enough for me.
OMGosh!! They are STUNNING!! I can see why everyone wants one! Make sure to add one for yourself too!
I have never seen this pattern before, and it is just STUNNING. Love love love it! I can see why you’ve made it multiple times! You are so lucky to have a daughter to sew with, I am green with envy! Now, I am on the hunt for a copy of Bonnie’s book. I follow her blog and have made several of her free pattern quilts, but now I must make one of these! :) Can you tell me how big it is? It looks big, and I DO love a big quilt :)
Wow! That one overwhelms me! It is amazing! 3 more???? Glad it is you and not me!
