Four braided rows are tonally color shaded from cream to yellow to gold to green and purple. The small blocks in the braids are a dark purple. The center blocks are a mottled green and purple batik fabric repeated on the border just outside the braids.

An incredible amount of hours went into the selection and placement of fabric, cutting , assembly and construction of this magnificent quilt. This is our masterwork, thus far. This quilt would make a stunning wedding or birthday or Mother's Day gift. It is made with premium 100% cotton fabrics. It was machine made by and quilted professionally by Anita Blair of Log Cabin Quilts in Shelton, WA. The batting is Warm and Natural, a cotton poly blend to give it extra durability for washings. The binding is dark green,doubled and machine sewn for extra durability. The quilt was washed and dried after construction to begin that softening puffy quilt look and feel. You can expect a vey slight amount of shrinkage with washing and drying in a machine.
*Please note measurements to make sure that they suit your purposes* This item is handmade and has its own creative imperfections.
We've been making quilts for over 25 years and absolutely love it, and we're NOT just talking about the buying the fabric part either. We've made over 400 quilts of all sizes. We love picking the patterns and then matching the fabrics and colors to them, and can never wait to see how it is going to come out. We make and donate many quilts, knitted hats, "Going green bags", and other items to the local homeless shelter, Safe Place, Habitat for Humanity, homeless school children, and graduating Foster Children.
Our quilts are just as beautiful and well made as quilts that sell for much more, and they are even more beautiful in person. We've kept our prices very reasonable, generally only enough to cover costs so that more people will know the joy of owning their own beautiful, keepsake quilt to cherish and later to hand down.
So easy to take care of, just wash and dry as you would for any quality fabrics, cold or warm wash, line dry or machine dry on low for that soft puffy look. Don't use bleach.
If you can stand to give it away, it will make a beautiful, unique gift for that family member or special friend who is getting married, has a birthday, Mother's or Father's Day gift, as it is GENDER NEUTRAL.
