This top is from a pattern found in a magazine...an example of simple color study...Bitstream is the name of the pattern.

Thank you! I'll find that project box and get right back with you...stand by

Quilts With Style...March/April 2007...Issue 63

Actually I got the pattern on eBay! There are several sellers that cut patterns from the magazines and offer the pages...and then some nut like me comes along and bids to win!

Very nice! Can't wait to see it quilted.

Of course! The pattern called for these colors. There's three warm and three cool... each needs three...a dark, medium, and light. It really is a color study!

DebraK 01-24-2010 05:59 PM

really cool!

Baren*eh*ked_canadian 01-24-2010 06:09 PM

Ooh, that is very cool!

Thanks, April, it was much easier to piece the top than it was to get the photos from my computer to the Board....I still can't figure out what I did right...LOL. If having a long to do list extends life then most every quilter I know is going to be around for a very, very long time :thumbup:

Your quilt is fantastic. You did a great job on your color study. If you look at it just right it looks 3-D - like you are looking down on a bunch of colorful skyscrapers.

What a striking quilt! It's amazing how all the colors fit together...like a rainbow. Thanks for the info on how to use the colors. Fantastic job.

Oh my gosh! How fun is that???!! Very sharp! I absolutely love it - I believe you will be making a slew of us run around the net looking for their own copy of that pattern - very sharp!

I found the magazine at the Quilt Shop online and then scrolled down to see other issues and was reminded of another quilt that I have on my to do list and it will definitely boot even the idea of getting to this one any time in the near future!

That looks like it was a really cool magazine. I would have subscribed to it...

jdavis 01-26-2010 05:38 AM

That's awesome!

Nita 01-26-2010 06:21 AM

WOW! Is that gorgeous or what??? I, personally, am not a huge fan of batiks but they are the perfect choice for this quilt. Great work.
