"The Bee's Knees" - Patchwork Collection
In-stock, ships in 3-5 business days.
This colorway is based off a submission from Maddy of @moemr01. The quilt has since been finished, so we got some updated photos :) Here is the description that she included:
“This quilt is a WIP, the pics [...] show it on my design wall, I've just finished the color arrangement yesterday :) This quilt will be a surprise for my mom for Christmas this year! She isn't crafty herself and has never quilted, there isn't anyone else in our family who quilts (or knits, or does anything crafty really) except for me, and I'm thinking of this as an opposite-of-an-heirloom-quilt, being handed up a generation instead of down a generation, because she hasn't gotten a lot of handmade gifts from the other (non-crafty) people in her life. […] It's a mix of golds with a small pop of red, a touch a pink fading to white, and a blue gradient fading to a deep black, with metallic stars on the darkest fabric.“

All skeins are individually dyed with acid dye, washed and rinsed, however some bleeding may still occur. Each skein is unique and therefore colors may vary slightly from one to the next. Due to monitor differences, actual colors may also vary from what is shown. I recommend handwashing in cool water.
