Fairy Frost

Post by kho »

I just bought some and I have to stay out of it till Christmas. I have never seen it, so I am wondering. Is it used more for accents? Or has anyone ever made an entire quilt out of it???? Thanks.

Fairy Frost is one of my fave fabrics. I have not made an entire quilt out of it but I did use it alot in my twin grandbabies quilts. I bet a quilt made with FF would be gorgeous. Are you thinking of doing one? What pattern?

It is one of my favorites, too... :-)

I have used it twice as background fabric, with batik details, and loved the combination! Here's one of them:

I have also made one quilt top entirely out of two different off-white fairy frosts, but I haven't started quilting it yet... I also have another quilt top almost finished (but in the UFO pile), with fairy frost flying geese!

You can use it for anything in my opinion... :-)

I think an entire quilt made with FF would be stunning. I have seen a quilt & have a kit to do myself that the background and a lot of the other fabrics are FF. So I think you can use it as you want to. It will be beautiful anyway you do use it. I love the stuff!

Here's a close up of the quilts I made for my twin grands. The whole thing wasn't fairy frost but a lot of it was.

Shoot, you can't see it very well. The white part is Michael Miller's Dots and the pink and purple is Fairy Frost. I'll try again.

I'm such a screwball. The prev. quilt is Hannah's and it's made with the dots fabric and purple FF. The pink is not FF.

This is Hunter's quilt and it's made with the dots fabric and FF's of purple and green. Let's see if this works. If not, I quit. I hate being so computer stupid.

Those quilts are lovely. The batiks look like velvet. I love the color combinations of the others. Golly they are pretty. More decisions to make. Hmmm

Seems like someone (csusio???) posted a pic of some blocks done in brown and cream FF.

GP did one in black, red, and champagne:
