Riley Blake Make it Modern – Cielo Quilt and Styling Quilts in Your Home

So, you’ve spent all of that time making a quilt. Now it’s time to show it off! Today, I will go over a few different ways you can display a quilt in the home. First, let’s look at my most recent finish that I will use to demonstrate.

Here it is! I used the pattern Ceilo from the Southwest Modern book by Kristi Schroeder. It’s a quick an easy make suitable for beginners. I used the Riley Blake Confetti Cotton colors in Riley White, Light Grey, Dove, and Stargazer. This is also my first example of how to style a quilt in the home, on your wall! Because it’s on the wall, your guests will easily be able to see your amazing artistry.

The next place you can easily style a quilt is folded over an accent chair like below.

My absolute favorite way to style a quilt in the home is using a quilt ladder like the following examples. The first example is a less styled look; while the second photo is a neatly arranged and folded quilt. 

The last and most practical way to style a quilt in the home is folded over the back of a couch. This makes it easy to actually use the quilt for its intended function as you hang out with family or guests!
