This is Boardwalk by Betsy Chutchian in Moda Allstars Snuggle Up. I used her pattern, just changed the layout a little. Because I can, and I like it.
Here it is out on the patio. I just love it! The design, the red print borders, and the striped binding all go together to make it a winner! And I am glad it is, because I gave it to our pastor's family. And they like it a lot. I am so glad!
You know, sometimes you just have to take a pot of tea with you to the sewing room when you're really serious about a quilt.
AND.... I was delighted to see a new softie fabric panel. I had to buy one. I had to, because I've loved those characters since my son was a very little boy. I bought him the boxed set of books, and they were so beautiful and so perfect.
I may have already made one of the little softies for myself. Maybe.
I do hope you are having a lot of fun in your place! I believe in having fun. It's Biblical. You know, the Bible says, "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine."!!! So. It's good to have fun.
Hugs and kisses, and lots of love,
Elaine

I often change patterns a bit just to make it “mine”
Another beautiful quilt Elaine. I have a friend in Australia who just loves everything Betsy Churchain - I shall send her your post.
That Peter Rabbit fabric is adorable. I made lots of Peter Rabbit items when my grandson was born - just so timeless. I also rather love your red mug with the hearts on it - gorgeous💕
I am catching up again.
Boardwalk looks amazing. That is a very effective design. Love the way you have put it together. What a wonderful gift. You have a real knack of finding just the right designs.
Yes, Peter Rabbit brings back a lot of very happy memories. Have fun making the softies.
