A Quilting Mini Series: Sail Away

Isn’t this just perfect for a little boy in a new house with a new bedroom who wanted blue for his room but his mom chose gray and a touch of orange and the whole family loves the water and boating?




Its going to be great for my 6 year old grand. I think he will like it. I think his mom is going to love it.





I have another quilt in the works for him which is a dirtbike theme with a fabric photo print of him on his dirtbike. But when I came across this sailboat quilt online, I had to switch gears and go with this. I’ll finish the dirtbike one shortly.

I stood in the fabric store googling quilts on my phone to on a project. When sailboat quilts popped up, I knew immediately I wanted to make one. I down loaded the pattern to my phone in the fabric store. The fabrics started coming together with sealife, star fish, crabs, fish, whales, shells, and anchors with blues, grays, and a touch of orange. I couldn’t wait to get started.





It was started and finished just a few weeks ago. It was easy and quick and fun to see it become real. It’s in the group of one of my most favorites. The backing is all sailboats in the matching colors of blue and gray.




While I'm on a roll, I should make another one with the left over fabric and change the layout and look .

While It doesn’t have to be on the bed, it would be good for a snuggle up on the couch, or build a fort, or under a tree for a picnic, or take on the boat for a nice daytime nap. 


I'm very happy with this one.

  2. Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your design. Many thanks
