What do you think of when you think of a blue quilt? Perhaps the first thing that is evoked is the traditional shower gift for a pair about to have a baby boy. Nevertheless today, blue is a color that can be utilised for both sexes in babies ' patchwork quilts -- whether girls or boys -- and can be employed for plenty of other circumstances, too.
Theme 1: baby
Blue is the perfect colour to put in a patchwork cover for a baby, whether you employ it all by itself for different shades and use it in the conventional sense ( blue for a boy, pink for a girl, etc. ), or whether you are creative and combine it with different colours for a rather more varied look. Either way, a blue quilt given as a gift for baby shower -- or making one of your own for your own baby to be -- is going to be souvenir that may be used to keep a little one warm, then tucked away for memories afterward.
Theme 2: nature, and spring
What do you think about when you think about the colour "blue" in nature? Blue flowers, dragonflies, and blue sky with fluffy clouds? Spring may are evoked when you think about blue in nature, and if you wish, you can put this into a patchwork duvet you make especially for the statement of spring's arrival. be creative, and alternate shades of pale sky blue with pastel pinks, greens, and yellows, or be bolder and pair pale blue with shades of courtly purple, bright green, and cheery yellow for a bolder look.
Theme 3: nautical
Blue is also the color of water, and if you or someone you know loves boats, boating, and the water in general, you can pair different shades of blue with crisp blocks of white, accented with the odd block of bright red, to give the cover a nautical theme.
Theme 4: nationalism
Specific to the United States, you can make a red white and blue quilt that gives a nod to the Old Stars and Stripes. Mix star formed patches of white with irregularly formed patches of blue and red to give a distinctly American feel to your quilt, one that's's also unique and one-off.
Theme 5: night sky
Finally, if night is one of your fave times, and you enjoy nothing less than a night out gazing at the stars, you can construct a patchwork quilt of a dark navy background with white "stars," to remind you of the night sky. Again, one-of-a-kind and unique, this cover will enhance your bed and actually let you sleep "under the stars."
