I like your quilt. More and more I like quilts with white. I like that you can see the quilting design better.

grandme26 10-04-2010 12:39 PM

Very pretty. I want the pattern or at least a big picture to make a pattern from

Yes, I was admiring this pattern in a catalog also. You did a fantastic job for just "winging" it! Love the colors!

Great work...I've tried "dreaming" something up from a picture...sometimes it works, a lot of times turns out to be entirely "me"...regards, sally

Great job - love the colours and the design.

ewesful 10-04-2010 05:37 PM

I love what you did - I have lots of stash and would love the pattern - I especially like the way you used the white to make each color shine. The border is terrific.

Sheree from Chicago 10-04-2010 07:38 PM

This is gorgeous! I've been wanting to make this for a while.

ShirlR 10-04-2010 08:24 PM

Beautiful work, gorgeous colors and I really like the white background. I have some Bali Pops I haven't used yet, I think I will buy this pattern! Thanks for sharing with us.

Weezie -

You did a terrific job of winging it!! I know the exact catalogue you found that picture in - I fell in love with it too!!! For those who would be interested in making this quilt, just tilt your head to one side you will notice that the blocks are set on-point -sort of a 5x5 size (don't now what the actual block measures but when I teach I have students think in units rather than inches). The white/light fabric is used for the side triangles, corner triangles, and sashing with corner stones using the white/light and a very dark (black??) fabric. The setting triangles look like they are floating which makes it so much easier to square off the quilt. Looks like the border squares could be done in several ways depending on your thinking about seams - could sew white/light squares/triangles onto a colored block - or sew on triangles sort of like seminole.

Aren't those Bali Pops wonderful?!! I own several and find it really difficult to even open the packages - they are so beautiful - with Strawberry fields being one of my favorites (think that might be the one I just got at a quilt show in Concord, NC last week). Anyway, your quilt is absolutely a stunner and I am sure that those extra pops will find their way into several more beauties! I have saved a copy of your quilt picture to my personal quilt picture file for more drooling!!

Last spring, I wanted to make a French Braid quilt and, afraid that I could not choose wisely all the fabrics for the 6 different braid runs, I bought 6 pkgs. of Strawberry Fields Bali Pops. I only needed a few strips from each package, so I was left with about a gazillion Bali Pops strips. I still haven't made much of a dent in the leftovers, so I predict more Bali Pops quilt tops in my future.

Stunning! I love quilts that have clean clear designs. Fussy ones make me want to look away and not see all the hard work put into the quilt. I envy all the finished quilts here. I really HATE quilting. I just like to piece the tops. BTW has anyone ever done block by block quilting? I have been thinking maybe that could be my answer....

finch 10-05-2010 11:24 AM

Wow that is really pretty!!!! Great job.

lotus63000 10-05-2010 01:07 PM

GOOGLE "Hanging Gardens quilt pattern" for several suppliers of the pattern. I couldn't find it free.
