Warm Colours and Simple Style

This is a custom organic cotton king-sized quilt that Becky made in the spring. But the colours seem just right for fall to me, so I thought I'd post it today.
Every custom quilt has a different story. The reasons people have for wanting a special quilt are varied and always interesting to us. We love the back story of each quilt and will share these with you whenever we can.


This client had a spectacular arched window in her bedroom that required custom drapery. She had gorgeous brown silk curtains with a floral embroidery pattern made to fit the window and she wanted something elegant, simple, and organic for her bed that would complement, but not compete with her curtains.


The plum meandering stitch in the centre panel of the quilt provides enough interest so that the quilt isn't boring, but over all the quilt is simple enough that it does not distract from or clash with the intricate pattern of the client's curtains. Simply gorgeous, if you ask me!
