Another BOY Quilt: Riley Blake Wheels

Finally...another boy quilt is finished! This quilt measures about 51 inches by 60 inches.
I used the fabric line from Riley Blake called Wheels. It is adorable, and when it came out, I knew I had to have it!

I stitched this one straight across in a wave pattern, so it went rather quickly.
I am still working on my "machine quilting" and "hand stitched binding" skills.....☺ It is a continual  process.

I really like the blues, oranges, greens, and browns together. These fabrics inspired me for a color scheme for the nursery. I am using another line of Riley Blake Fabrics for it though- love their designs!

I'm sure this quilt will get a lot of use, just like the other boys quilts....being that boy #4 will be here soon!
thanks for reading!

  1. I love this blanket -- I've got some of those fabrics flying around here somewhere! :) Thanks for the blog love -- Happy Housewife Designs made my blog - she's fabulous. Also -- the last Monday of each month I do a blanket party - you should link up. I'm doing a year long blanket drive for our baby Gabe who I miscarried last August. All the blankets are being donated to Project Linus. I also have blanket guest posts each Monday if you have anything you would want to share! Long time lover of your blog! :)
