So, speaking of cozy, this is our new duvet cover. Finally finished! I was nearing the final stages when my friend Tammy, of Marmalade Fabrics, asked if she could borrow my Bottled Rainbows quilt for her booth at Quilt Con. Well, that sealed the deal! I was really ready to replace our bed quilt anyways. All that Bottled Rainbow energy has been fun, but it was time for something more fitting for the two of us - myself and Brandon.
We're both enjoying the peaceful simplicity of our new bed covering. It looks so nice with the curtains too! Now, the only thing I'd change is the flooring. But, hey, that's not my department.
I would love for you to share the details of finishing for your duvet-closure, seams etc... I am thinking of doing that with a quilt top I have and a comforter I like but not all the time.
ReplyDeleteLooks great - glad you are feeling better again!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I agree with Colleen... would you share the details of the construction of your duvet cover. My main question is did you lined it?
ReplyDeleteGreat looking duvet cover! I like the star made from triangles and it's really great off-center like that.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! It's just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, the duvet cover so pretty! Glad y'all beat the flu.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling better. And just a little glad to hear I'm not the only one who gets cranky after a couple of weeks like you've had. :) The duvet cover is beautiful, a lovely fresh look. x
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that the flu has passed - how miserable! The duvet cover is beautiful - both the color and the design.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful duvet cover!
ReplyDeleteReally lovely duvet cover ~ did you applique the star on? Glad to hear you're feeling better.
ReplyDeleteI did have a cozy weekend. It was in the high 20's here in Portland, OR, so I sat around with the kitties, did some knitting and hand paper piecing and watched reruns on tv. It was lovely!
gorgeous! did you applique it on?
ReplyDeleteLove the new duvet cover! I suppose your handy husband can redo a floor np, but if you are looking for a flooring company, we know a good one!
ReplyDeletelove the placement of the lone star- so peaceful and pretty!
ReplyDeletelove your new duvet! I have a quick question about it-- when you pieced it, did you do anything to the back of the quilt top for your pieced seams? I'm making a pieced duvet top now and worried about the seams fraying or just generally being weaker (and not having any quilting to provide additional assurance that they will stay put!).
ReplyDeleteoops just realizing you probably appliqued your star on, so my question may not apply... :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I did applique it, to simplify things. You could consider quilting your duvet top to batting only just to give it strength?
