Adventureland Quilt

 


Here is my spring time Adventureland quilt. 
I chose to make a throw size as a gift for a relatives big birthday. I found some beautiful fabric for the back and built a fabric pull, all in these soft pastels to coordinate.
The pattern is by suzy quilts and you can buy the pattern from her website. She was hosting a sew along on Instagram and I couldn't resist joining in. It is a really easy to follow pattern and quick to sew. I found trimming it square a little difficult but it was ok in the end. Since I did the throw size, it was a little bit harder to quilt on my machine but I picked straight lines with my walking foot, to give me the best chance of doing a nice job of quilting.  I have added all the fabrics names I could and the Aurifil thread colours I used, if you are interested. I'm quite happy with how it turned out and I am excited to send it as a special gift.
