Numbers quilt

Someone suggested that I use the numbers fabric/repurposed IKEA duvet cover to make a baby quilt. I quilted it as whole cloth, bound it and washed it. What I haven't managed to do yet is take decent pictures of the entire quilt. Today, detail shots, tomorrow....

    What an amazing idea! Adds so much to the fabric - brings out the best in it. A great way to concentrate on the quilting.

    This is grea! Some of the times I see are 6:01, 21:01 & 5:08.

    We can see images depicting time
    everywhere if we look for them.

    This is a beauty of a quilt as well. Great work!

    did you use interfacing at all on the numbers fabric?

  42. monkeyflowers (20 months ago | reply)

    The stitching plus the colored numbers is a great combination.
