If you missed Part 1 it is located HERE

Today, I’m working on the border details, and let me tell you—the decision-making never stops! We decided to add crisp white on-point squares to frame the stunning floral centerpiece. I think it gave the design just the “zip” it needed before transitioning into the rich dark purple fabric.

The four corners of this Handmade Bicycle Quilt feature charming bicycle panels/ at Spoonflower , and positioning them just right was a bit of a puzzle! At first, I thought they should all face the same way when laid flat, but once I placed the quilt on a bed, it became clear—they needed to “pedal” around in a continuous motion. Now, they flow beautifully in a circular path, giving the quilt a dynamic feel. It might not have been my original plan, but sometimes the fabric tells you what it wants! 😊

It’s always an adventure creating custom quilts, and this one is shaping up to be a real showstopper. Stay tuned as I finish piecing it together!

Placing the Corners in Before the Final Border

This is the part where everything really starts coming together! The bicycle panels are in place, and I couldn’t be happier with how they play off the colors in the big floral centerpiece. The flowers in the bike baskets and the soft ombré tones of the main flower complement each other beautifully—it’s like they were meant to be in the same quilt!

Bringing in the white on-point squares was such a great decision. I wanted something that would brighten things up without overwhelming the design, and these little accents did just that. They add just the right amount of contrast, pulling everything together in a way that feels both crisp and elegant. Plus, they give the quilt a subtle sparkle—almost like tiny twinkling gems set against the deeper purples.

Now, with the corners placed, the next step is the final border. That’s always a big moment because it frames everything and gives the quilt its finished look. I can already tell this Handmade Queen Quilt is going to be a real eye-catcher once it’s all stitched up. Can’t wait to see it on a bed—it’s going to be stunning! Stay tuned! 😊

Before the Quilting Gets Started

This Handmade Quilt is really coming together, and I couldn’t be more excited to move on to the next step—quilting! This one is going to be double batted, giving it extra warmth, softness, and that beautiful plush texture. And of course, it will be Custom Quilted, making it truly unique. That’s the best part of a Made To Order Quilt—every stitch is done with care, and no two are ever exactly the same!

For the finishing touch, I’ll be doing a machine-bound edge trim using that adorable floral print. I think it’s going to tie everything together beautifully, adding just the right amount of contrast against the bright white background. Those little pops of white scattered throughout the design will keep the whole look balanced and fresh.

With this quilt almost ready for the final stitches, it’s time to start thinking about my next project—a stunning Kaleidoscope Quilt! This one is going to be another Made To Order Quilt, available in both King and Queen sizes. If you love bold, intricate patterns with a mesmerizing flow, you’re going to want to keep an eye out for this one!

Time to get this beauty quilted up and ready for its new home! Stay tuned for the final reveal. 😊

Queen Size Quilt/ Made To Order Bicycle Quilt

You can already get a feel for how this quilt will transform a space. During the day, the bright, colorful flower will be the star of the show, adding a lively, cheerful energy to the room. But in the evening, as the light softens, it takes on a completely different feel—calm, serene, and almost dreamy. It’s going to look super sharp once it’s all Custom Quilted up, with the textures adding even more depth to the design.

I never know exactly what Im going to do, Its best to build on it as you go. I did outline those tiny cute squares. Just love those. 🙂

Coming Up Next: Kaleidoscope Quilt – King Size Quilt in the Making

This next project is going to be a BIG quilt, and I can’t wait to dive in! The bigger, the better when it comes to these classic patchwork quilts—they truly shine in King and Queen sizes. Up close, the colors and patterns might seem bold and busy, but once it’s laid out on a bed, it transforms into a stunning mosaic-style design, blending beautifully into the space. That’s the magic of a well-balanced patchwork quilt!

Right now, I have about 50 blocks made, which I think puts me at about the halfway point—still a ways to go! I haven’t quite decided how I’ll border or quilt this one yet, but that’s part of the fun. Every Handmade Quilt has its own personality, and sometimes, the design decisions come together as I go.

And with temperatures in the teens outside, there’s no better time to stay cozy indoors and sew!
