I love making quilts. I am passionate about making quilts. Sometimes I get consumed with making quilts! This is my latest quilt. A friend asked me to make it for her and gave me carte blanche to do whatever I wanted. I love taking all kinds of bright colorful fabrics and putting them together. I especially like to combine fabrics that don't match and see what happens. The more different patterns I can find, the better.
The knockout roses have started to bloom so I picked on just for you this morning. If you lived nearby I'd deliver to you personally, but you'll have to settle for a virtual rose. Next time I'll show you what else is blooming in my garden.
Wow what bright cheery fabrics. The pinwheels give the feeling of movement. Really fun quilt!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is beautiful, Rhondi! I love all the bright colors ~ so cheery and happy.
ReplyDeleteI just noticed my knock out rose was blooming too! Enjoy your weekend. Love this weather.

Thank you for the virtual rose! I love your bright quilt, it's so fun and cheery. Did you make it up as you went? It's very happy and makes me want to dig right back into my brights!

The knock out rose is so beautiful, and the quilt is a "knock out" also. Love it.
