Unicorn Garden Quilt Tops

 I needed to make 4 of the Unicorn Garden quilts. 

 I have one completely finished. 

 I finished 2 tops at the last quilt retreat. 

 Well, I just finished the 4th top! 

 I had to gather up the backings and get them ready to send to the quilter.  

Thought I would show them all together here.

Each one is slightly different, not just the colors either.

Can you post the differences?

This was the first top.

  I have since gotten it quilted and it is bound! I don't have a photo of it yet.

Here are the next 2 that I finished at the retreat.

The last one.

Probably my favorite one too.

I loved each one the best as I was making them, though.

Here are a few facial close ups.

I added eyelashes to these.

The first one did not have eyelashes.

The backing I used on the first one was a hot pink with medium sized white polka dots.

I chose a sparkly unicorn backing for this one.

For the peach unicorn I chose this adorable flannel.

For the fourth and final one I chose this silky, soft sateen for the backing.

My little herd of unicorns went to the quilter today!

I'm not in any hurry to get them finished.

I did make all the bindings today too.

Which is your favorite unicorn?

1, 2, 3, or 4?

It's so difficult to choose!!

Unicorns Galore

 I made a unicorn quilt previously to pattern test the Unicorn Garden pattern by Apples and Beavers.

You can find the pattern here if you need one in your life.

It is a very well written, easy to follow pattern.

Do you remember it?

I didn't have anyone specific in mind to give it to.

My sister-in-law told me that her grandgirls would LOVE a unicorn quilt.

In this case it means I would have to make 3 more since there are 4 girls.

I decided I would make them so began the adventure of cutting them all out.

I hope to sew at retreat in February.

I am adding a crown to 2 of them and a bird to one.

Here is my original quilt top, prior to quilting.

The horn, crown and bird are all paper pieced.

I have finished 2 horns and 2 crowns.

I have one entirely cut out and am working my way through the second one.

I just have the background left to cut for that one.

I can't wait to get to the next one so I can make the horn and the bird!

What are you working on?
