Welcome the Nest Quilt! It may just be my favorite. In this, my newest pattern, we aren’t putting a bird on it (for once). Nope. This time we are becoming the bird. This pattern really exemplifies my branding and desire to help you Celebrate your inner artist. You will need to be wild and free like a bird as you create this quilt: gathering scraps, quickly placing them, and creating your own nest. There aren’t templates for every step. You are going to have to trust the directions and trust yourself–break some rules. Just let go, be free, and fly, little birdie. 🙂
This particular bird really likes to feather her nest with scraps of recycled silk sari ribbon from Leilani Arts. You’ll be able to make your own Nest very soon! Will keep you posted. It will be in the shop soon. Oh, and that gorgeous quilting you see below…that is the amazing work of incredible quilting guru, Angela Walters.
Oh, yes…that fabric above…that is mine! COLLAGE for Windham. Here. |
Itotallylovethispattern! Those quilts are gorgeous times eleventy!
Can you tell I like them? I really really do.
I love this more than anything! I love birds and nests and this is just me. WOW!!!!
I love this quilt Carrie, and I am so impressed with Angela (yet again) – she quilted woodgrain as the tree holding the nest! Awesome.
This makes me want to make a cool quilt! Love it!
Hi Carrie, I wanted to drop by and tell you that your quilt, “Nest” was my favorite in the Arizona Quilters Guild show. I was there as a workshop instructor and lecturer. Was this quilt juried into QuiltCon, because I could swear I saw it there, too.
I have a daughter who graduated from RISD! Always interested to see where the artistic path takes people post-grad.
I like your work a great deal.
Best,
Leslie Tucker Jenison
