Vintage Inspired Airplane Quilt Clips

Wednesday, April 18, 2012

Transportation themes are popular for boys, right behind jungle and sports themes. And these vintage inspired airplanes are a beautiful touch to a nursery.

These airplanes fly straight up when hung, as if they are lifting the quilt up, up, and away!

For the red airplane, I started with my newest shade, tomato red. I love the richness of it. I then handpainted the propeller, window, and stripes in white.

The blue airplane is a deep navy blue. The wings are chambray blue, a pale blue with a gray base. I then cut out a star to trace onto the wings and painted those white. (I think next time I will have some stars laser cut to be layered onto the wings.) The propeller is a nice dark yellow, and the window is white.

Would you like your own set of vintage inspired airplanes? I would be happy to create a set for you as quilt clips, wall hangings, curtain holdbacks, wall letters, a growth chart, name sign...nearly anything.

Quilt Clips for Pottery Barn Kids "Abby"

Sunday, January 25, 2009


I think Pottery Barn Kids must be one of my top 3 favorites in baby bedding lines. Their designs are rich and colorful and always have some whimsy sewn in.

This set of daisies I created to coordinate with the PBK "Abby" bedding. I used bright red, sage green, pale yellow, light pink, and white colors. Notice the "stitching" details on each of the flowers - a zig zag, a horizontal, and a vertical. I then contrasted the details on the leaves to compliment the petals. What also makes my quilt clips stand out, is that they are handpainted in custom colors and layered to make them "pop" when you hang your quilt.

Would you like a set of your own daisy quilt clips in the PBK "Abby" design? Just email me, and I would be happy to send you a custom invoice for your order. Don't forget that all of my designs come in practically all of my products - 9 inch wall letters, curtain holdbacks, growth charts, name signs, hair barrette holders...

Quilt clips are the perfect final touch to your child's bedroom. They add artwork to the room and keep the quilt safely out of the baby's bed.
