Lisa's Quilt is Finished!

Lisa works at Thimble Pleasures in Chapel Hill, and makes the most adorable quilts you can imagine.  Some are for sale in the shop, but this one I know is for a very special 6 year old boy:

The fabric can be found at Thimble Pleasures.  The swirling quilting design is called "sticky buns", and can be reduced or enlarged to any size you like.

French Braid











Today's Quilt was pieced by my friend Celeste, the manager of all things Bernina at Thimble Pleasures in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. I think she told me this is a Christmas present. The Quilt is a French Braid and is offered as a class from time to time at Thimble Pleasures. You can find the pattern in the book French Braid Quilts by Jane Hardy Miller. I've decided against an overall pattern, although I have seen this quilt finished this way many times very nicely. I think you'll agree, custom was the way to go here.
