I used a layered cake of the Amy Butler's Belle collection for this quilt. The fabric patterns are bold and beautiful, and creates an explosion of color when put together.
The land scape around Rowan Oak is beautiful with all the tall trees and wooden areas surrounding the house.
The house is also lovely and has all these quirky characteristics that really show off the eccentric personality of William Faulkner.
I also had a jelly roll of the Belle collection that I used to help put together the back and the binding.
Very pretty quilt, and lovely location to photograph it!
ReplyDeleteThe backing is beautiful, too. I really like how the dark navy frames the front and the pieced binding brings it all back together. Lovely photo shoot, too! Congratulations for getting it done in time!

I love these fabrics anyway and you have made a fabulous quilt with them. Photographing 'on location' is a genius idea.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish on this quilt. I love the fabric!
ReplyDeleteThe Amy Butler looks beautiful in that pattern. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteThis could be used on either side. Love that large blue print for the backing. And of course it's a beautiful location! Makes me want to finish a few quilts just so I can take them on my next trip south for some location shoots. :)
