Orchard House Quilt!!

 Today I am so excited to share a new finished quilt with you all, especially for all of my quilting friends that are also avid book readers!!  I just love that these beautiful Orchard House Fabrics by Heather Peterson are all about Lousia May Alcott's timeless classic, Little Women.  This quilt is called Orchard House and I just think it is oh so beautiful!!  The Pattern is by Anka's Treasures and it just such a fabulous pattern!!!  It was so easy to follow and so detailed, just fantastic ;)  

  

The Orchard House quilt uses yardage from the Orchard House Fabrics  Collection.   I just love how everything borders the March's Family home in beauitful stars!!  And the way the border seamlessly ties into the star, just brillian!  The quilt finishes at 77" x 77" so it is a great size to curl up with!  

This Orchard House quilt is made with basic piecing.   And yes, there are som tiny squares and specifice placement, but again, the pattern is extremly detailed, so it makes all the piecing super easy to follow!! It is great for experienced beginners and experts alike!! And once those little flowers (which are absolutly goregous!!) in the center are pieced, the rest comes together super quick as it is all rather large piecing!!  

I decided I wanted to do an all over Loose Feather quilt design on this.  I think it gives the feel of ivy growing up the outside of an English Manor ;)   And I actually quilted this one up at the cabin, so it was on the ol Avante that is run off the grid on Solar Power, so fun!!  And yippee for yummy texture!!  

And if you love this quilt as much as I do . . . you can make your own!!  There is an Orchard House Quilt Kit available now and it even comes in a cute keepsake box!!  This really is a fantastic kit as then you don't have to worry about gathering all of the different size yardage pieces.   And trust me, you are just going to love making this quilt!!!  

And that is my Orchard House quilt!  This is going to be a treasured quilt for sure!!  I can't wait to snuggle up with a good book in front of the fire place ;)  

Thanks for joining me today and sharing in this new finish with me. 

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!
