Yes, it does seem to have become a recurring theme for me, doesn't it?
.... I was thinking about that not too long ago.
And Guess what? .... my 4PP that has been brewing in the background for sometime will likely have green jumping into the mix, to tone down the purple!
And yes, the Mother Quilt of that one has the same border fabric ..............

Though you will be happy to see that the third and 4th quilt from these fabrics did not get green borders!!!!!

Purple doesn't have to be toned down! Why would you do that?

..... and no, no green backing ... just green borders on #1 and #2!!And still have some of that green ... used it just for old times sake in FWS and PC!
Oh I think the 4PP purple does need a little less of it .... hoping to get it back into action before Christmas. For sure I want it done before I become a Janiac-Maniac!!!
Thanks JeanieG ... and yes QNSue ... not all my work has cows and Canadiana!
The FWS and PC Canadiana was just something that seemed right to do as part of our International project!
I believe my Out To Pastures were the first cows that I did, other than the fun touches as part of PC.

I remember a big Guernsey cow out in the pasture or was that a Holstein...it was you, QuiltE, I think, or OKsewGlad...very nice quilt and well done, so it could have been either one of you two. I did admire it.

Anael ... Thanks!! for now Mother Quilt hangs on the wall quilt rack, next to my bed.
If you are thinking of a Holstein ... that'd be Miss Mazel!
Oh dear, how could I have forgotten her??
.... I guess because she is framed and not a cuddly sort of a quilt!
(and probably the piece of work, of which I am the most proud!!)
Maybe I should switch my avatar to Miss Mazel?

How did you ever miss her?

Of course, the title was ever-so-descriptive!
The IRL one was a red ribbon winner too ... I would so like to take my version to the same fair for her very own ribbon from that fair!
