Bear Paw quilt... ready for basting and quilting
 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]320201[/ATTACH]

This is the first quilt I have ever made for myself! Have made several for the kids and others, though!

I'll be handquilting this one.

It's beautiful yeah for you! Really, you did a great job.

Great job on a beautiful quilt! Please show it when you are done hand quilting it!

I really love it with just the green and that neutral batik. In this case, less is definitely more! I think that your choice to hand quilt is right, because this one will really show it off!

This is exactly what I was thinking - what beautiful fabrics, so simple and yet just gorgeous.

love the simplicity of the two colors...very nice job..

it's really beautiful... green's my fav color :)

Beautiful!!!!

Love the green!! Beautiful!!!

Love your quilt. Isn't it nice to keep one for yourself, finally! Nice colors.

love the green very beautifl

Beautiful quilt. Love the colors and fabrics that you chose. You did a wonderful job. Thank you for sharing.

This is a great quilt and it gave me a solution to a quilt I've been wanting to make. My nephew is graduating from Baylor in May, and I really wanted to make him a Baylor quilt. Their colors are green and gold, and they are the Baylor Bears, so the bear paw pattern would be perfect. I wanted it to be a quilt that he could enjoy for years to come, and that would be good for a guy, and this is perfect!! Thanks so much for sharing your quilt with us. Kathy

Just in time for St. Patricks Day!

Beautiful quilt, love those colors.

Really pretty, Kim!

It's really nice. It looks like it belongs in a great castle.

Oopsie do I see the top left hand block - top left of the block upside down ? Not being a quilt police ! Just wanted you to know before you quilted it ! Or is it a humility block ?

Looks great Kim! Enjoy the quilting process. You got the border on just in time for St. Patricks day. Do you have an Irish background?

This has always been one of my favorite blocks and you certainly did it proud. Really like the two color idea. Eager to see it completed.
peace

love the colors

Simply beautiful! And better yet that it is going to be for you! :)

I've never actually seen a quilt that was all bear paw blocks. Striking!

Beautiful :)

Very pretty and just in time for St. Patrick's Day!

Nice job kim! I always liked the bear paw quilt pattern. Simple but lovely.

The simplicity is beautiful!!! Some day I'll get to do one for me.....sigh!!

Great job!!!

Wow that's really pretty. I recently did a mystery quilt that turned out to be bear claws I did it as a scrappy wasn't impressed still haven't finished it. I think I am going to make doll quilts from the blocks and bring them to school for housekeeping area. But yours are beautiful. Thanks for sharing gives me a whole new outlook on this block!

Great work and love the colors you chose.

Very pretty, and the colors are GREAT.

I just love the simplicity of it. It looks calming.

I saw that too. Hope she catches it before she quilts it.

It is so pretty in the green and cream colors! You did a beautiful job. I hope you post when you finish hand quilting!

How awesome that my quilt has inspired you! and your son will love any quilt you make him (as long as it's not too girly lol)!

Playswithcolors... I don't know if I have an irish background, but my grandmother suspects I do... We are not sure... lol... i'm a little bit of just about everything! lol

for all of you asking if I am going to fix the mistake, I'm not... I'm going to leave it there and enjoy how it adds a twist to the quilt... adding an applique bear is a good idea! I'll post whole quilt again when It's done being quilted.
