Bring the freshness of a morning meadow into your living room. This throw quilt features a patchwork of sky blue and golden-brown florals, creating a soft, sun-drenched aesthetic. The centrepiece of this set is the exquisite hand-cut appliqué, featuring cheerful bluebirds dancing around a charming birdhouse. Whether draped over your favourite reading chair or layered on a bed, this set—complete with a matching decorative pillow—is a warm embrace after a long winter. I have added a handwritten label on the back to add authenticity.
Size of throw is about 150 x 130 cm (59 x 51 cm).
The coordinating scrappy patchwork pillow uses the leftover fabrics in a charmingly random way and is about 13 inches square. The overlapping back makes laundering easy with the simple way to remove and re-insert the pillow form. Form not included.
Note: Pillow is shown with a 14-inch form, but it is slightly overstuffed and would be better with a smaller size, perhaps a 12 inch or 13 inch square form.
This listing is for the Throw quilt and matching pillow.

Features
I always use quality fabrics and thread. In addition, I am conscientious about making sure I use a full seam allowance. I never leave fabrics holding together by a few threads. This ensures a quality, handmade item, that will withstand normal care and use for many years.
The inner batting layer is usually Pellon or Hobbs 80/20. Occasionally I use a bamboo batting.
Binding is always double thickness and attached by machine for added durability, with neat mitered corners.
The nice thing about quilts is that the more you use them the softer and more snuggly they become. Don’t be afraid to use them wherever you want to be. After all, we wear cotton fabrics everyday in our clothes… your quilt won’t fall apart before it gets well loved!
Care
Care
I have often washed my own quilts in with a regular wash load, with no regrets. However, it is still recommended to use a gentle cycle, mild soap and tumble drying on low heat. (** Note: I rarely prewash my fabrics. Expect a small amount of shrinkage on the first laundering.) It is the tumble drying that achieves the soft crinkly look that we associate with handmade quilts. If you prefer a flatter look, lay flat to air dry… do not dry in the dryer.
Remember that sunlight will fade any fabric, and your quilt is no exception. So; have a care when you leave it outside frequently or in a sunny window.
