This is really just a rhetorical question, like how much fabric is too much? How many shoes are too much? How much chocolate is too much? There's no real answer here.
In 2008 I made this quilt from the tutorial on Crazy Mom Quilts blog. I gave the quilt to one of my dearest friends.
Then I wanted to make a quilt for my husband to take with him surf fishing. So I made this one I called Land and Sea. I changed the sashing measurements on this one.I thought I was done with the pattern. But I have used it a bunch. 2 I don't have pictures of, they were smaller one my MIL Christmas quilt last year and one was for a baby shower last year.
I'm using it for my Sweet quilt. I wanted to make sure I used a pattern to showcase my absolute favorite fabric ever, the peeps.
It's a great pattern for doing that.
My friend who I gave the first quilt to is expecting and I made a baby quilt for her this past week. Guess what quilt I made?!Everyone loves this pattern. And since they are gifts I make what they want.
It is a great pattern. I am grateful for the tutorial. Thanks Amanda Jean, I feel like I owe you something!lol!
P.S. friends and family, I can make other kinds of quilts ;p
All are absolutely gorgeous! I remember that tutorial...and it is one I was thinking of using for the zoo menagerie quilt I am about to start. Might just have to go ahead with it! You do awesome work, Erin!
