BLACK AND WHITE CHECK WITH RED QUILT
BLACK AND WHITE CHECK WITH RED QUILT
70X90"
This size is big enough to go atop a queen bed and perfect for you to curl up with another adult.
This unique quilt is handmade by me in the central highlands of Washington State. I don’t use patterns and every quilt I make is spontaneous and composed as it is created.
This quilt is so cool. I was thinking about dinosaurs while making it. My nephew was really in to dinosaurs and sharks and the color red when he was little, so the red triangles are like fierce teeth chomping across the quilt. I like the contrast of the playful red with the masculine buffalo check, so overall the quilt is equal parts serious and fun.
All of my quilts are made with 2nd hand fabrics sourced from the fashion and interior design industries as well as vintage shops and estate sales. This way I get fabrics unavailable to anyone else and give some rad old fabrics a new life for you to love! The fabrics may carry a visual history of their previous life (wear marks in a pair of old jeans or the red wine stain of a linen tablecloth). These choices are intentional, showing the character of the journey of the fabric.
All of my quilts are intended to be used. They can of course be hung on a wall but I make them to be slept under or picnicked on top of. I wash the one on my bed yearly in the washing machine on cold and gentle, then line dry it and toss it in the dryer quickly to fluff it. I don't recommend doing it more regularly than this. It is well constructed but still it is handmade. Contains Cotton, Linen and Cotton Poly blended fabrics. 100% cotton mid weight batting inside. Do not dry clean.
I love everything I make and I hope you do too.
