Bubble puff quilt No. 7

I received an order for another puff quilt 3 weeks ago and as we are almost going on holiday, I started ASAP.  It was the first time I had to stitch one according to measurements (cot size 140 x 70cm) and had a bit of trouble getting it to exact size as it reduces in size when the puffs are stuffed.

The order was for grey and white with blue and yellow.  As I had the animal print already, I send a photo of it to the client, and she immediately gave the go ahead.


After adding an extra row to the top and bottom (which are quite difficult to do with all the puffs already stuffed) the quilt was still not the correct size.  I then added a 2-inch grey border all around and finished with a blue binding.


Another extremely happy client who will take the quilt with for their new grandson when they travel to the Netherlands at the end of the month.

I tried to finish this quilt also in time for Bloemshow, but with working overtime wasn't able to.  I used all the practice stitch outs ...
