Here is a quilt design I came up with for my girlfriend who asked me to make her a quilt. Her only requirements were that the TX state flag be the center, and that I use blue bonnet fabric in it somewhere.
The colors in my drawing are not the true colors as the reds and drk blue will be to match the flag's true colors. The lighter blue is were the blue bonnet will be going. I hope she likes it. It will be 100" x 100" over all. BIG project for my second bed quilt! The corners are going to be variations of 9 patch work. |
Looks great to me!! Be sure to show us the finished quilt!!!

Ditter Although, I may just do it anyway only a bit smaller? for me! First off, make her pay up front for the fabric! At least then, you'll get something for your effort. Secondly, I'm a bit confused. Is your drawing of a block where many blocks will be sewn together for the quilt or, is this a drawing of the finished quilt? If its the finished quilt, I'd worry a bit about scale -- you'll have two (or four) long sides with no piecing to break up the expanse. Do you plan on some fancy quilting design for those areas? |

Does that help or confuse more? I did just hear from by gf and she and her husband like the design and the placement of the flag. So now on to deciding on the fabric and pricing it. She knows I want paid up front. |
looks nice.
