I'm very excited to share my latest project! The SIMPLY MINI Organic Quilt is the result of combining my desire to make affordable organic quilts, particularly for newborns who are most vulnerable to chemical exposure, and a love of the beautiful organic fabrics now available.
As the name suggests, they are simple, letting the beautiful fabrics be the star - and they are MINI in size at only 20" x 28" (51cm x 71cm). I believe this will prove to be a very versatile size for baby car seats, strollers and as a clean, soft quilt or mat for a newborn baby. This is also a great size for play with dolls, bears etc. Each comes wrapped with its own business card sized tag.
Now listed in my ETSY shop (pink one has now sold) where you will find more details. I love both of them, but as a mother of six daughters, I must say I really, really enjoyed sewing with a little pink again.....
***Fabric Note: Each of the four printed fabrics are from Eloise Renouf's new First Light collection for Cloud 9 Fabrics.
These are wonderful and I'm sure they will sell like hot cakes.
ReplyDeleteYou do such lovely work ~ FlowerLady

ReplyDeleteSimply beautiful! A gorgeous idea for those lovely fabrics, I'm sure they will be popular.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lorraine, Diane and Susan - I like making things which are both beautiful and useful.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely Karen! Serene, simple and sweet. I'm sure that there will be a lot of 'bigger' people who will adore these!
ReplyDeleteThese are delightful Karen! I love that fabric!
ReplyDeleteA little simplicity goes a long way! Your quilts are lovely!!
ReplyDeleteGratulation to your new ETSY-Shop. And I wish you success. Both colours are beautiful. That's a pity that Germany so fast away to buy such a fine quilt.
ReplyDeleteHello, they are so pretty quilts, a wonderful item for your Etsy Shop! Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeletegreat :-)
ReplyDeleteThose are so pretty - especially that pink one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, Karen, and they are just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThey are wonderful, Karen! And I agree, little bits of pink are a joy to work with, reminding me of when we brought home a little pink bundle of our own. :) Your color combinations are always so fresh and happy.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! They are just darling. The fabrics are gorgeous. I just looked at those today
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet quilts!
ReplyDeleteXX!
Very beautiful and indeed perfect for newborns, or kids who sleep with a blanket. I just bought a sewing machine and I'm gonna try and make myself a simple quilt. I'm in love with the pattern and colours of your Peaceful Night quilt, even thought that one might be a bit to hard for a beginner :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHope you'll swing by http://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2015/08/double-play-on-way.html to check out some other great photos and to link up!
So pretty! And congratulations on your Etsy shop!
ReplyDeleteThis is not only a super idea, but they are such sweet little quilts!! How fun, Karen!
ReplyDeleteThese are just adorable - you have really let the fabric shine through :-)
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful work! Complimenti! :)
ReplyDeleteThese little quilts are so sweet - love the beautiful fabrics you have used too!
ReplyDeleteBoth colourways are beautiful! Are you having much success with your Etsy shop?
ReplyDeleteThanks Liz. No Etsy sales yet, although a couple of people have expressed interest or intent to buy one day. The upside being that there is no pressure to sew just to sell. I am free to sew whatever I most want to sew and I can always use the quilts listed in Etsy as gifts in the future. They sit neatly tucked away in my cupboard for now.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are so sweet!
