This week I am sharing another PMQG Charity quilt…
This is definitely one of my favorite quilts we have made at the Charity Sew Days EVER! I may be slightly biased by my love of Polaroid photos. I became obsessed with Polaroids during my days in the film industry… I have hundreds and hundreds of them still.
This quilt started as a pile of fussy cut squares and yards of navy and white solids. The end result is so much fun..
This quilt was quilted on a domestic machine by one of our guild members Chelsea. She did an amazing job and I love how the swirls work with the Polaroid.
The other thing I love is the navy binding… I have never done a quilt where the binding is the same colour as the quilt background. It is so effective in making the blocks pop off the quilt. I can tell I will be using matching binding on one of my quilts in the future.
The back of the quilt shows off the wonderful quilting Chelsea did… and highlights the fun piece of turtle fabric I found in my stash that just had to go on the back.
WOMBAT QUILTS 
I’m always happy to see a completed Polaroid quilt too! Yours is just darling!
Thanks Debbie. After seeing them all over Instagram a few years ago I knew it was the perfect group project.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this quilt. Sign me up for the next Charity Sew you do another one!
Lilly. Consider yourself signed up.
How lovely to see a modern quilt with a navy background! So often they’re white or grey. The polaroid squares are a vivid contrast, and I can quite see why you love them so much.
Thanks Kate. I love navy as a neutral. It plays so nice with all the colours.
And it’s so much warmer and friendlier than black 🙂
Gosh, you make me want to make one of these quilts. So cute.
Lori they are so easy to make…you should add it to your list of quilts to make.
I am going to do that!
I love your polaroid blocks! I have some of my own just laying around and realizing I like yours because they feel bolder and less kitschy. This is wonderful.
Great job Cath! Nice way to showcase some cute “I spies and fussy cuts”.
I’m so impressed with your charity quilts–BRAVA! This Polaroid quilt is such fun.
Inspired by your quilt! I love this Cath. I hope to participate in a future one for Charity Sew Day(s) I am a new 2023 PMQG member so trying to figure everything out.
Sheila we will have the dates for the sew days up shortly. First one of the year is in February.
