fairytale fabrics quilt

I love, and have so many of, those very cutesy Japanese fairytale fabrics, plus so many other cute conversational prints but sometimes they are hard to place in a project without them taking over. So I decided to dedicate a project to them.

Cropped_quilt

It is larger than a crib quilt but not quite a twin size so lets just call it a throw, shall we ?  It was originally intended for Cissie's room but it has worked its way into the living room as a kind of snuggly. Perfect, because it is getting colder here.

I quilted it in straight rows and concentric squares. You know how much I love them. I wanted to keep it very plain to showcase the fabrics so the alternate squares and rows are in a solid off-white Kona cotton. The colors are definitely more spring than fall, most likely because I started it in the spring.
And here it is in all its glory (dang it is hard to photograph quilts, any tips ?).
I really love it.
