Quilts for Sale!
I’m so happy to write this post with a couple of my little quilts for sale. At this point I’m not setting up a store, I’ll write the prices for each under the photos and you can email me if you’re interested! I hope so much you like them and can think of someone who might enjoy one. Shipping will be something I’ll figure out specific to each country and I think paypal invoicing will be the easiest way to pay, but maybe if things get complicated I’ll figure something else out. Prices are Canadian dollars.
While these look best for smaller folk, please note I have numerous small quilts I use while watching telly and I can’t imagine life without one to snuggle under, so they’re for all ages. Although I do especially love seeing my 3 year old god-daughter sleep under the one I made her when she was born as well as carry it around the house.
I’ve been making a point of using all my FAVOURITE fabrics this year. Often quilters hoard fabric and just pet some of it instead of using it. But I realized they are SO MUCH HAPPIER IN A QUILT. Ha!! Of course. These quilts all use my best fabrics, some of which will be gone for good soon. I like to try different techniques with the little quilts too, so you’ll see a collection of squares and triangles making up different patterns here.
First up, Morning Walk with friends, with the majority of this fabric designed by the amazing Leah Duncan this little quilt is an abstract landscape, dark in one corner, green in another, it is one of my favourites for sure.
$220 + shipping 100% cotton measures: 45in x 38in (115cm x 96cm)
My second is a variation on the tradition pattern known as the Irish chain, but mine is multicoloured. It was inspired by a similar one I saw posted on Craftsy (I’m not sure who made it originally, sorry whoever made it). I love grey, so I always like to sneak it in as a neutral when I can. Backed in cheery feathers, this one is also one of my favourites ; )

The last quilt I’m posting this month is one you might have glimpsed before (if you follow my instagram). This pattern is known as a version of “Delectable Mountains” which are really fun blocks to arrange in all different patterns! I had a lot of input with choosing this one, which was so fun. It is backed in one of my all time favourite prints (again, Leah Duncan ♥)
Delectable Desert Mountains
SOLD 100% cotton measures: 44in x 30.5in (112cm x 78cm)
These are all machine washable in cold water and you can dry them on warm too. Especially good if babies and toddlers use them! Don’t forget different computers or devices make colours look a bit different, so if you want to know more, contact me!
That’s it for now. I feel almost nervous posting these for sale. I genuinely love making these and always make them thinking - oh I’m going to keep this one for myself… While they are all smaller quilts, they take a couple weeks for me to make from start to finish, I’m not so fast and I work full time, so they’re my relaxation and creativity on weekends. Thanks for taking a look and please share if you think someone you know might love one.
PS, more quilts coming next month too, a couple more neutralish and a more ‘boyish’ one too!! Stay tuned.
Happy May!
Ohh Wendy they’re all so beautiful! I genuinely would love to buy one but am skint for a bit as everything is going into savings. Now I know you’re selling them I’ll save up for one.
Wendy, they are gorgeous! Wishing you every success with this venture x
Thank you Sam xo
Your quilts are beautiful!!! Great use of color.
Thanks so much!!
I love your delectable mountains quilt. I came across your quilts via pinterest! You make amazing color choices! I was wondering if you would be willing to tell what size of block you started with for the delectable mountains quilt? Thank you in advance. All the best, Emily
Hi Emily, Yes! Sorry to take so long to respond. The blocks I made were 8x8inches. But usually if you use hst’s it would be 10×8 (I experimented with using half rectangles, so that after I cut up the strips to sew back together, the blocks would wind up square) I hope that makes sense! I should have a tutorial soon! Cheers!!
