Quilty Bucket List

Hi Everyone!

I'm sure most of you have heard about the "Quilty Bucket List" that Stacey over at The Tilted Quilt started. So today I thought I would share with you mine. When I started making this list I realized, that I have a lot I mean a lot of quilts that I want to make. I really had to think long and hard, it actually to me awhile but I finally narrowed it down to the ones that I knew If i didn't at least try to make, I would just cry!

Bangles


First up is Bangles by Sarah Fielke (from her book, Hand Quilted with Love). I just love this quilt! It's at the top of my list.

Fractured


                                                                                                                                       

Also at the top is Fractured by Kathy Doughty (from her book, Making Quilts). This is just so interesting to me. It just draws me in.




Orange you Glad



Then their is the Orange Peel quilt. This one is by Crazy Old Lady Quilts. It's just beautiful!

Farmer's Wife


Of course I had to add a Farmer's Wife quilt to my list. This one by Lolly Quiltz is my favorite!


Flying Geese Remix


I've always wanted to make a Flying Geese quilt. I love this one by Kitchen Table Quilting.


Lone Star

Ever since I saw this Lone Star quilt by Pretty Little Quilts, I just knew that one day I would have to make one for myself.



Garden Party



Now this beauty is my ultimate to do. It's another quilt by Kathy Doughty called, Garden Party ( also from her book, Making Quilts). The background of the quilt seems like it would be pretty easy to do. But all those flowers, well that's another story. But they sure are pretty! One day I will get up enough courage to give it a try.

Making this list has made me realize that my true goal is to push myself and try designs that I thought would be to hard or that I wouldn't be able to do. Hope you all have enjoyed my bucket list. If you would like to read more about the "Quilty Bucket List", check out The Tilted Quilt.

Have a great weekend!

  1. Yup the farmers wife would top my list... I started years ago just using Bonnie and Camille's Bliss fabrics but I'm keen to remake in scraps for a bit more colour variation. Love that bangles quilt too - thanks for sharing your list. I'm off to add more to mine!!

  3. What a great list! I liked how you narrowed your list down by items you had to make or you would break down and cry--it great distinguishing factor!

    I love the Farmer's Wife with modern fabrics. I think this one will one day make my bucket list.
