I made my sister a red hat quilt. It used up a lot of purples.

I made a purple rail fence quilt and it turned out pretty nice. Four shades of purple and lilac. I would send picture but quilt is being quilted at shop.

I have a small quilt shop and I vend at quilt shows and when I display it at a show it gets lots of WOW's. It's a fun quilt to make too, anticipating what each block will look like.

Is there a tutorial or download for this technique?

I'm looking for a tutorial or pattern for a tube quilt. Any suggestions?

Has anyone made a Yellow Brick Road in different shades of purple? Does anyone has a pattern they used and liked in purple? I am all ears.

The second quilt I ever made was a Rail Fence pattern in purples. It was very easy to make.

I made a purple and red quilt for a Red Lady friend.

It was beautiful. I used the Winding Ways pattern.
