Beach Quilt in a hurry!

Trying to squeeze in a quilt before we leave for the beach in 2 weeks.

I just loved Rachel’s, and I’ve really been wanting one for our family too.

I’ve been daydreaming of spreading out a color-filled quilt on the white sand beach and making memories with my fam.   Hoping I can get it done in time!

The pattern is a freebie, over at SewMamaSew.   It’s called Pinwheels in the Park.    I think it screams summer!  Whimsical and fun.

Send some late night sewing mojo my way, will ya?

Beautiful quilt!

If you didn’t win and you’re interested in making one of these yourself, be sure to go vote HERE.   It’s looks like as of right now, we’ll do a tutorial and a sew-a-long.  It will be fun!

Enjoy the day,

Oh.my.gosh, you have no idea how blown away I am by your response to this giveaway!

Seriously, THANK YOU for your sweet comments.  I have read every single one.

I am a little sad that you can’t all win because there are so many new mamas out there, a sweet little girl who thinks I’ve gone a bit crazy for giving away a quilt (such a sweet comment!), grandmas, people wanting to donate the quilt to charity or just hang it in their sewing room.

I am so touched and I’ve enjoyed visiting your blogs and ‘meeting’ each of you!

Well, I did get the binding done!  Phew.  Here’s an updated photo:

Many of you asked about the design and it’s one I made up myself.   It’s nothing complicated, but I would love to share it with you if you’d like to see how I made it.

There were a lot of you who said you didn’t think you could make it, but I know that you can!

I wanted to ask your opinion.  Would you prefer a tutorial or would you like to do a sew-along.  Or both!  If you wouldn’t mind voting, I’ll be sure and get to work. 

Here’s the original, Sewing Circle Quilt,  it’s a small  lap size quilt, about 40 x 60.

Thank you again, you each encourage me to keep the creativity flowing.  I’ll post the winner first thing in the morning, good luck!

xo, Lindsey
