Novelty November - Happy Note, musical quilting pattern

'Happy Note' quilt pattern designed by Crystal Smythe

Do you have a musician in your family?  I do and there was a request for a quilt! ... but no piecing .... no problem, I like a challenge.

Using a sheet for a quilt 

I knew I had a musical digital quilting pattern in my collection, so I thought I would do a whole cloth quilt with this quilt pattern all over it.  I started with a sheet from Dunelm, a Dorma 300 thread count sateen sheet in Seafoam - Popcorn and I knew it would be the perfect choice.  Then on the back I put a silver fleece throw from Wilkinsons (for £10!).  It all stitched out beautifully and was soft and cuddly.  I also put a thin polyester wadding in the middle.

Above you can see the back with the pattern stitched out on the fleece.  Another of the 'Novelty November' quilt patterns that are available to my customers featuring musical instruments including a saxophone, a piano, a trumpet, a cello and a guitar.  It is quite busy, but on the plain sheet it was perfect.
