Low Volume




It’s always an adventure to make a scrap quilt around here. Usually because it takes some imagination (yeah, that’s what we’ll call it) to create a masterpiece…our scrap basket is looking a little sparse.  But this quilt surprised us and turned out almost exactly how we pictured it.



We wanted to make a baby girl quilt with a vintage feel and a whole lotta scraps and low volume prints. We cut the squares to charm square size: 5 inches. This quilt would look perfect hanging out on the line, don’t ya think? 


The backing is an unbleached muslin and works well with the small-scale prints on the front. For the machine quilting we had to resort to Plan B. Plan A was to machine quilting straight lines along the whole entire quilt. Yeah, we like Plan B much more than Plan A too:

 If you wanna have this quilt all to yourself, you can head on over to our Etsy shop and purchase it yourself :)
