I got this fabric from an auction at one of my guilds. It’s Laurel Burch, and I’ve always loved her designs.
I also love the BQ patterns from Maple Island Quilts, so I used BQ4 to make a giraffe quilt. The BQ patterns all make good use of large prints, and most of them can be arranged in at least two different ways.
The grandsons have a bunk room at our house, and I thought this would be perfect for one of the bunk beds. I have another in progress for the other bunk with a different Laurel Burch print but the same quilt pattern.

You did those giraffes justice – they look so free & tall in their new quilty environment.
Thanks. I just hope the boys like them.
Laurel Burch! Oh my goodness I remember her fabrics! I have in my stash somewhere some of her cool cat fabric. Awesome quilt and I love giraffes!
Yes, still into Laurel Burch after all these years! I have some earrings from the 1990s π
Perfect for a boy’s bunk bed. I can see why you love that fabric
Thanks. I like it, but of course the boys couldn’t care less what’s on the bed.
