Pennant quilts are making me a bit of a one-trick pony. But this is a pony I’m okay with riding.
My most recent pennant quilt was made for my friend Amanda, who asked me to make something in red, coral, pink and aqua. I immediately remembered my hoard of my very favorite fabric line – Bliss by Bonnie & Camille for Moda. I’ve used this fabric on casserole carriers, quilts, bibs, curtains and skirts. It feels both vintage and modern. It’s girly, but also classic. And I want to cover every space in my house with the color combo. Actually, when we found out I was pregnant, these were the fabrics that would have been all over a room for a little girl.
But since we were so lucky to get my little Henry-man, we went with navy instead. And the stash of this fabric remained in my fabric bins for future projects.
This is one of those future projects.
I love that I was able to use a variety of fabrics in a variety of colors. There are all shades of pink and red, some aqua and also some grey. I backed and bound the quilt in the grey chevron. 
It feels eclectic, but also cohesive.
I hop that this quilt provides warmth, comfort and style for Amanda’s sweet baby girl, who arrived the same week that the quilt made it to her new home.
Happy weekend, friends!
Every time you make one of these, I’m itching to go make one myself!! SO CUTE!!! Love these quilts Kim!! 🙂
I just love your quilts. I’ve always wanted to make one. Maybe I’ll have to make one or two for my boys. The quilt is so lovely!
Thank you so much – these quilts are truly the easiest. You can do it!
Well, pretty sure I say it every time you post a pennant quilt, but I love this! Someday…I’m going to learn to quilt. And then I’ll make a pennant quilt. So likely for my grandchildren. Or great-grandchildren. Yeah, I’m not holding my breath either.
You could totally make one, right now. It’s the simplest type – if you can do a pillow, you can do this.
STUNNING. i will never get over how amazing those quilts are. Never.
Thank you. That means a lot to me.
I am just loving your quilts Kim. This one, the one you made for Kenz. I really love how you are re-thinking the traditional and using such fresh fabrics with great colors. And the free form patterns are so amazing as well. I much prefer this over the traditional patterns. So amazing!!!
Thank you so much, Katja. It’s fun to make them and a joy to give them.
Oh how perfect is this?!
I always love these! Its so fun to see a new twist on a quilt. Someday I will definitely have to have one for a nursery 🙂
Awwww… I sure hope so. =)
Love that fabric together! Such a beautiful quilt!!
Aren’t you a great friend. It’s lovely and no doubt will be cherished for years to come.
I love it! I’m not good with a needle.
Love this!! You are so talented.
You know these quilts have a special place in my heart. SS uses hers nightly!!
Aw, this makes me so happy to hear. SS was the first!
Hey, nothing wrong with being a one trick pony when the pony is this fantastic. I love these quilts, and those fabric/colors are so fun!
Oh that we could all have tricks this good! 🙂 Keep up the good work!! I LOVE them!
And that fabric… I love that fabric! Especially since I’m spoiled enough to have a Kim creation of my own in that beautiful fabric! You are so sweet. 🙂
Nice! Love the “pennant” look! Just doesn’t get old. I love how you had incorporate it into a blanket. Never thought of that! Great idea!
