I finished stitching the last umbrella this morning while the kids decorated the tree. After lunch (yummy turkey enchilada soup) I decided to find the sewing room and see if the machine still works! The good news - it does!
I didn't have a 'rainy' fabric so I went with light blue and they might be sun parasols. We will see how they want to be quilted if they want rain drops or not.
This below is the template I have been using. I just drew it onto paper with a sharpie. I turn it over to get it for the umbrella handle turned the other direction. I also drew some with the under part and some without. I used 6 inch squares.

So cute! Love the way the blue setting triangles finish it all off. Quilted raindrops sounds just perfect.
Your umbrellas are adorable! The blue triangles are perfect with them. Are you planning to hand quilt them?
Beautiful! The blue was a perfect choice. Congratulations on a finish!
just adorable. I like the light blue... sun or rain.
quilted raindrops and sun rays... nature puts those together sometimes too.
Hurray for the umbrellas! And the blue setting is perfect. Congratulations!
Your umbrella quilt brightened up my day! We are in the middle of a blizzard here in WYOMING!
WOW did you ever do the right thing by choosing the blue - absolutely beautiful! Congrats!
Very nice indeed! I've also been watching your umbrella collection grow over the months.
Sweet little bumbershoots! And that blue works perfectly, rain or shine!
Your umbrellas are darling! I love how you're waiting for them to "tell you" whether or not they want quilted raindrops. Have fun with it~
How wonderful!
Looks great and will bring cheery comfort on cold rainy days!
This is so incredibly cute! I love the colorful umbrellas! Or parasols, if that's how you end up thinking about them. What a great rainbow scrap project!
OMG! Love, love, love it! The pale blue looks wonderful with all the little umbrellas/parasols! What size is it at this point?
