    Default First "real" quilt!

    I made two of these to cover the ugly brown bench seats in our RV dinette. I used Valori Wells' Metamorphosis in Sapphire to cover the valances, and chose fabrics for the quilt to match. Eventually, the brown will be gone and color will reign supreme in the RV!

    thanks!

    Love the fabrics and colors. You did a great job on the quilt. The narrow orange binding with the white/ cream background makes the quilt pop!

    Your work is just stunning, I thought the quilt was transparent at first glance.

    Nice job!! The colors and placements makes it look 3-D.

    Cool! The colored blocks look like they are floating above the fabric. That is beautiful!!
