another purple and white quilt

I just finished this purple and white quilt top. The pattern is Blitzen by Basicgrey Moda... or at least all of those words are on the cover of the pattern.

I am very pleased with it, though I may never want to make 144 HSTs again, or at least not for awhile.

Thanks for looking.

Beautiful quilt top! And love all those teddies!

Well done! But they are big HST's! As nice as this is you will want to sew it again!

Love the pattern. I can see toddler quilt using smaller HSTs. Maybe even scrappy? Too many ideas. Not enough time....lol

I love the number of purples you were able to use in this quilt. The HST's are so versatile thanks for sharing. Beautiful quilt.

Well done and colors are great, like all your bears.

Very pretty and I remember seeing other quilts you have made and they all seem to be purple. Can I guess that is one of your favorite colors??? Love all of your bears in the background

Love your quilt top. How nice the different colored blocks all came together.

Yes, purple is my favorite color. I am always happiest when I am working on a purple quilt. Thanks for liking my Christmas bears too. My husband has bought me a boy and girl Christmas bear every year since 1991. They sort of overrun our house at Christmas, but I like them a lot. I have 50. Isn't that ridiculous....

Oh, just hang on. I said the same thing when I finished my first barn raising quilt. Now I think of it as my favorite pattern and I have made 6 or 7 in different colors, scrappy and so on. I have a top ready for quilting in my projects bin in greens. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/wink.png Your purple is beautiful and looks so perfect and has a "modern" look to the old traditional pattern. Are those Santa Bears viewing your accomplishment? My kiddos used to get Santa Bears every year from Macy's. Such sweet furry friends. You have quite the collection.

Lovely quilt! You should be pleased.

Ohhhhh I love it! Purple is one of my favorite colors and I adore HST quits, the variety of designs is amazing! You did a great job.

That’s so pretty! One time I won 288 HST in a drawing at my quilt guild. It was fun arranging them especially since I didn’t have to make them.

Dry pretty quilt. I suspect you will do another one I the future.😁

Homespun 12-13-2020 08:23 AM

MicheleC 12-13-2020 09:20 AM

That’s beautiful!

EmiliasNana 12-13-2020 09:36 AM

Lot all your collection of purples to make this pretty quilt.............and your collection of bears. Sometimes a girl just has to collect things you love. I collect cows and fabric LOL

I am still deciding on that. I will do it on my domestic and I really only SITD, so it will be some form of that. Right now I am getting ready to make the quilt sandwich, so I will need to make that decision soon. :)

The barn-raising pattern is one of my favorites and your colors give a wonderful modern look to a lovely old standard design.
