Good morning! I hope you are enjoying this beautiful day (even though it is snowing here again!) I am excited to show you my grainsack bed coverlet. It is entirely hand sewn and could fit a king size bed. I started it last winter by hand sewing strips of red grainsack yardage together. This winter I finished it by adding a border with a different red grainsack roll. I am happy to have finally finished it a couple days ago. It did take a while, but kept me busy during the long winter months! I think it turned out, what do you think?
I sent Loretta at Full Bloom Cottage some grainsacks and she made these bolsters from them for me. I love their size, perfect for the end of the bed! Thank-you very much, Loretta, they turned out wonderful!
Thank-you for taking time to come back once again. And a huge thank-you to Kim at Savvy Southern Style for featuring me this week at Wow Us Wednesdays!
Have a lovely weekend!

ReplyDeleteLove the photos in your header as well. Summer
Your bedcover turned out beautifully. I can see why it took a long time. Looks great against the darker wood of your bed.
