Embrace the sun quilt

The may is nearly over and it's still pretty hard to find the sun in germany.



It's always raining and the temerature is pretty low.
Tuesday was the only nice day this week so I spent most of the days outside.



I went jogging and me and mr. artistic took our bikes for a little ride.

In the late afternoon we met with friends and had a little barbecue.




But I'm full of hope that the sun might come back again this summer so I finished my "Embrace the sun" summer quilt.



I used only stuff I had on hand. I mixed some vintage fabrics with a few fabric left overs from other projects.



For the backing I used an old curtain which was gifted to me by a friend of my dad.
The green is perfect to put the quilt on the grass because you won't see any spots.



The binding is made by the last pieces of vintage fabrics which I had left over and some solids.



Now I'm hoping the sun comes back pretty soon that I can use the quilt.

Embrace the sun

It's been a while since I worked on a quilt because there was no need for a gift and I already had enough.
But last week when I finished jogging I didn't want to go home.
The weather was so nice so I stayed a bit longer near the sports ground.
I took the old blanket out of my car and stayed a while just relaxing in the sun.

But why using an old blanket to relax in the sun ?



So I came with idea to make myself a fun summer quilt to spent time outside with a comfy and pretty blanket.

I didn't want to buy any new fabrics so I used what I had.
Gladly I still had a few pieces of vintage fabrics from my cross quilt since the colors and patterns are so nice for a summer quilt.



I added some solids and made a few cross blocks and some stars in different sizes.

I'm not sure about the red and the brown in the quilt but since I'm already at the quilting status it's to late for changes.


The cutting and block making took my only one day.
Pretty quick for a complete quilt top for me :)

Sadly there wasn't enough batting at home so I had to buy a 1/2 m at the fabric store.
But beside of this I'm only using things I already have at home.
