This quilt is quite the journey.
Lots of favourite fabrics, bright colours, and memories in these blocks
block #3 in blue & yellow
block #4 in a "spicy" palette of warm brown & pink/orange
block #5 in greens, pink & pops of blue
(this one went together really easily)
I decided on large-scale florals for the outer corners, assorted geometric prints for contrast, and blending itty bitty prints for extra detail. That's my 'formula', it seems to be working so far so I'm sticking to it! I love how the Liberty, vintage & modern fabrics all mix up together.
Have a good week, Linda
that one is coming along nicely!
ReplyDeleteYes. I think you have the formula just right!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous, Linda, and thanks for sharing your formula for combining prints so successfully. Your blog should come with a warning: LINDA IS THE PIED PIPER OF QUILTING. EXERCISE CAUTION, YOU WILL WANT TO ABANDON ALL OF YOUR OWN PROJECTS AND IMMEDIATELY START WORKING ON WHATEVER LINDA IS MAKING INSTEAD. ;-). The danger is real!
ReplyDeleteI like the way you make each block so differently, but in the end it all work together.
ReplyDeleteThat is an excellent plan to have some cohesion though each block so different. You are doing a marvelous job with this project, Linda.
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, and yes! I really like these!
