“In the Limelight” - a new Quilted Twins kit ready to go
This place housing a lot of refugee orphans asked for cleaning supplies on Saturday. So Monday morning I went to the store and bought some for them.
When I first saw this alligator panel - well, I didn’t understand why my sis still had any in stock!
Considering these photos are taken in Florida, I thought the background quite appropriate.
The long armer quilters used this really cool design. on the swamp background. I thought it was perfect!
We’ve made up the pattern - and just a warning - if you want this kit, please do not wait to order. We have a limited quantity. Your “boys” in your life would think these are super cool! I’m sure of it! (Some girls too!) I think it’s cool!
Maybe part of why I thought it so interesting is because in the background here at mom’s house, you can see a swampy area. We’ve had gators back there in the past.
When I saw the panel, frankly, I didn’t understand why Floridians and other deep southerners had left any in the store for any length of time. I thought it was 100% amazing print! So, I pulled it and came up with this design around the panel to feature it with a bit of drama. The long-armers added a whole bunch to it with their quilting, I might add.
The quilt kit is here, or just the pattern can be found here.
The panel is a full yard panel so it is made with the 36”x45” panel - getting to be a bit rare. Of course, you could substitute another panel for this one.
Lots has been going on here in the few days - so this one is going to be quick - and short. I did enjoy making this alligator into an amazing quilt - I thought.
But this pattern would make a dramatic statement using another equally amazing panels as well. Just change the colors around to work with whatever the panel is that you are using.
Be sure to check out what my sis has for you in the store here!
Here’s one of the beauties we have!
