Hooray hooray! This delightful quilt is done. I don’t have a washer/dryer in my apartment, so I usually have to wait til I have a batch of quilts ready to wash when they’re done. Here is one of three I just finished.
I was inspired by this quilting on this lovely, oceanic quilt on Sew while he sleeps.
I really like how this turned out. I won’t be heartbroken if it ends up on my bed. Or guest bedroom. š

I love this, I might just have to make something similar!
Thanks! I love it so much I ended up keeping it for myself, haha! š
It turned out beautiful! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the blue!
Thank you very much! Your tutorial is great and your blog always inspires me!
Hi Ann, did you do two or three strips of each color? also, how big is the finished quilt? I want to do this for my daughter for her twin bed. I have a lovely jelly roll in purples (here’s the link if it matters: https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop/detail/32703/robert-kaufman/robert-kaufman-fabrics/kona-cotton-lavender-fields-roll-up ) which I’m going to pair with grey for my neutral. It’s my first quilt and I don’t want to screw it up!
Thanks in advance!
Hi Gail! I did 2 strips, because the jelly roll I had contained two strips of every color. My finished size was much smaller than a twin- probably approx 44 x 40. But I think if you added some border work around the edge it’d look fantastic and fill out the size. I love that jelly roll! I have wanted to make this quilt again, and it will be a great first quilt for you. This was one of my earliest ones. You’ve got this!
Thank you so much! I might just get another jelly roll and do 3-4 strips of each of the 12 colors. I’m nervous but I think this will be a good first quilt and I have until next Christmas to complete it. š
