There are so many beautiful quilts entered in this fall's Blogger's Quilt Festival over at Amy's Creative Side. This is a wonderful opportunity for all of us, to share our work and celebrate each others creativity. Take the opportunity to enjoy....you won't be disappointed.
Thank you Amy, for all the work you do, to make this happen.
The quilt I would like to share with you has been.... a bit of an unexpected surprise for me. It started with a few fat quarters and me wanting to make a sample, for joining blocks, in a QAYG tutorial........I got a little carried away.
Also, right around this time Chawne knit a blanket that blew my socks off......I know, I was still dreaming about this blanket, as I made this quilt.
What did I learn throughout this process.....keep experimenting with new ideas and realize inspiration comes, in many different forms.
The quilt now resides, in Montreal, with my twenty-eight year old daughter.....she was visiting, took one look... and you know the rest of the story....
I follow your blog and must say ALL your quilts amaze me. I especially love all the stripes and the randomness of this one. I'm so glad you shared it's story for the BQF!

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your use of striped fabrics in this quilt! I've been collecting stripes to use in patterns inspired by Anita Grossman Soloman. You've inspired a whole new set of stripey ideas! Thank you!!
