I initially saw pictures of this quilt online and fell in love with the design. I just had to figure out how to make it.
|
It's gorgeous, but it would be my nightmare to have to make it.
|
Lovely quilt!
|
Lovely colors and quilting compliments. I have seen this design in antique fabrics but this modern take is so pretty
|
Gorgeous quilt and quilting. Colors are gorgeous too.
|
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
|
Your color selection is fabulous, as is your precision piecing and quilting! Congratulations on your beautiful finished quilt :)
|
that is gorgeous!
|
Amazing! You did a great job figuring it out, picking the right shades of colors, piecing and quilting. Lovely!
|
Wonderful work! Perfect fabric and color selection, too.
|
Wow this is so very very pretty, you did a fantastic job!
|
What a beauty...I can see why you fell in love with the design. It is a spectacular quilt and I’m sure it was a challenge arranging the colors and keeping them in order. Wonderful finish Dunster.

That is really neat! If I didn't have so blasted many things started, I'd be tempted....but...oh well....
|
It is beautiful!
|
That quilt is exquisite! I love the design, but for me the colors make it. Did you shop for the fabric, or shop from your stash? Either way, you have a great eye for color. It looks so pretty on the bed.
|
What a beautiful quilt.
|
wow, would I love to make this! Every block pops and it just glows :).
So did you graph it out? I have a "bundle" of fabrics to make a ? granny square? quilt. Geesh, I can't think of the correct name but it's similar. What size of your blocks? I'd like to do one around 96" square. I love your fabrics. |
WOW! Stunning. How many different colors did it take to produce such beauty.
|
Just to second some of the others, gorgeous, lovely, stunning, beautiful and completely amazing!
|

Absolutely love it.
I absolutely love it. I'm a huge fan of various borders, the symmetry, the colors. I would love to find the pattern. Fantastic job.
|
Beautiful quilt. I love the way the border falls over the foot of the bed.
|
Thank you everyone. To answer some of the questions -
This was made from fabrics in my stash. The strips are 2", finishing at 1.5". The quilt requires 9 sets of 8 fabrics each, and only two 2"xWOF strips of each fabric are needed. It's fun putting it together. 8 fabric strips are sewn together, then sliced into strips, then laid out and some unsewing is done. The quilt is 98" square. |
Oh Wow..this is a beautiful quilt ..I love the colors
|
It looks like you figured it out! Beautiful quilt with lots of work and hours in it, and it shows!
