I am in love with this pattern by LORNA and as soon as I posted it on my FB page, my daughter informed me this was HER quilt. She still has her first Teddy Bear and had many of them growing up. And she fondly calls her daughter Hannah-Bear or 'bear-bear' (because she is an girlanimal).
I lightened this up a little so you can see the paisley. Who else has a paisley bear?
A variety of scrap brown paw blocks are ready and the sashings are ready. Since I have a day of my sewing space to myself, I am going to put this center into it's flimsy stage as soon the outer footprint instructions come out. I did purchase the pattern, but I am working along with the QAL taking advantage of Lorna's extra tips along the way.
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon
Very, very cool. Of course your daughter would claim it....that is what they do :) Enjoy your sew time.
ReplyDeleteLove the color of the bear.....A Paisley Bear....How 60's of you!
ReplyDeleteThis paisley bear is adorable! And the scrappy bear paw blocks are fabulous. How sweet that your daughter claimed this quilt as soon as she saw you were planning to make it!
ReplyDeleteInteresting Pattern. The Paisley Bear is cool. Dod you think of your daughter when you started this one? Have fun making all the parts!

ReplyDeleteOur bears are growing together! So fun to be bear making with you!
ReplyDeleteIsn't the pattern great?!?!
I got the last of my HST's cut out last night. Now to iron them open, and pull out the papers. I love all your scrappyness in the paw blocks.
ReplyDeleteSo fun to see you progress on this quilt. Love to see your bear walking. You've definitely inspired me to make this quilt. Love yours. Total #CreativeGoodness

He is so cool, and what a wonderful fabric for him, just mottled enough to imagine that is how his fur might be. Love the close up photo.
ReplyDeleteWow, your bear is fabulous!! And the paisley is just perfect!! Can't wait to see this guy done!!
ReplyDeleteYour bear looks fantastic, Sharon.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet!
ReplyDeleteI love Lorna's patterns and love even more your daughter already claimed this quilt! It is sure to be one you will enjoy making.
ReplyDeleteLove your daughter's paisley bear! It's a nice feeling when a family member claims a quilt.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, Sharon. This one is on my immediate to-do list, as soon as I get some of my monthly on-going projects together. I've already collected a variety of browns.
ReplyDeleteI can see why she has claimed it. It is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! It's good to know where a quilt is going before it's finished. Kind of like knowing the baby's gender before its born.
ReplyDeleteGrin....sounds like the perfect quilt for your daughter.
ReplyDeleteHe's strutting is stuff proudly, and rightfully "sew"!
