Pow Wow quilt

I've had the pattern, Pow Wow by Cluck Cluck Sew for a while now. When I was looking for inspiration for a quilt for my nephew and his wife, it immediately came to mind after seeing this item on their wedding registry. They asked for blues, purples and red only - so this is what I came up with...


They live in NYC and got engaged on the Brooklyn Bridge. This Gramercy fabric by Leah Duncan is her depiction of the bridge. It became the perfect backing for the quilt.


It was fun to include some NYC themed fabrics purchased at the City Quilter!


And the straight line quilting added some great texture...


Hope they like it!!!

    Great colors and always love the "story behind the quilt" in choice of fabrics/colors/patterns. That Brooklyn Bridge fabric is awesome.
