Another day, another baby quilt, another pattern by Suzy Quilts!
My sweet friend Carly just had her first baby girl (after three boys!) and when I asked what style of baby quilt she wanted, she requested something with a Bohemian feel. I know that she loves pretty desert inspired prints too, so after raiding my stash I pulled out some of my very favorite fabrics and I bought the Triangle Jitters pattern from Suzy Quilts (you can find that HERE).
I’m so pleased with how this turned out! I tweaked the color layout just a bit by adding in that beautiful golden yellow as a fourth color and this quilt is ready for the Bohemian Desert baby girl!
The quilting is simple straight lines that follow the arrangement of the half square triangles, and it crinkled up beautifully in the wash.
The backing might be my favorite fabric in the quilt! It is a pretty, thick woven that reminds me a bit of a serape, but because the right side of the fabric had some blues that were to teal and bright, I flipped it over so that the “wrong” side is facing out. It is more muted with purples rather than blues, and it was perfect! I bought this at Joann’s a year or more ago and I haven’t seen any since sadly.
Fabric used in the quilt includes:
Tomahawk from the Arizona line by April Rhodes
Survey Ochre from the Bound line by April Rhodes
Cactus Field Fun and Wispy Daybreak Aura from the Morning Walk line by Leah Duncan
Woodblock Indigo and Spirit Animal in snow prints from the Mesa line by Cotton and Steel
Sharp in Grey from the Doe line by Carolyn Friedlander
Stitches in Petunia from Carkai line by Carolyn Friedlander
Just found your blog via A Quilter’s Table and had to let you know how much I enjoyed reading it. I loved your choice of patterns and and fabrics, and my bookmark folder just got quite a bit fatter! Thank you so much.
