Still in pattern format.... I've started cutting out and made one block just so I can see the colours working together.

And they are stunning! :-) (said with total modesty of course!)

I really like that, one day I would like to be able to do quilts like that.

Yikes, that second photo is horrible! Far far too big and too close. sorry!

This shows the colours as being a bit duller, I can't win! :-)

The moda marbles are the exact colours in the mottled fabric. I also have the very light green, and the very dark purple, they're here somewhere. May add those in a thin border.

So if you used no diamonds how do you piece it?

Never mind I just went back and looked and I see the HSTs now. I have used this in a smaller design but never actually made one yet.

Yours is very stunning indeed!

It's all half square triangles. It's very clever! :-)

Oops.. posted at the same time.

Yep, all hst. :-)

That is going to be REALLY pretty!

It's gunna be bright! lol

Blue Chicken how big are your triangles? I tend to like the country prints and don't lean toward the marbles and batiks. I wondered how yours turned out within each piece. How does each indivuidual triangle look?

I am finding it harder and harder to find the country tiny prints and have resisted using hand dyed type cottons but I may have to experiment with them.

I don't know if this makes sense but because I do such small stuff I have to keep in mind what is left in the square after it is all done. Is there any print or design to see? or is it all one color with nothing interesting to see.

The blocks are 9 inches finished. I tried making them smaller but it would have been quite fiddly and the end result would be quite small too.

Oops... it's upside down! lol

I'm not having a good day!

its just beautiful. my favorite color combo is purple and green!!

Awesome!!! I love bright colors and those fabrics are stunning!!! I can't wait to see more!!! 8) :D 8)

Love the color combination.
Can hardly wait to see the finished product.

I love your colours. This quilt is going to be spectacular. Great work and looking eagerly to seeing more pictures.

Thanks for the closeup Blue Chicken!

Blue, I love the focus fabric, and how you've matched it so well. The quilt is going to be spectacular. Can't wait to see it finished!

I can't wait either! lol

I couldn't figure out how to use the focus fabric without cutting it too small, and it wasn't till I saw a medallion quilt in a magazine that it clicked... the focus could be the border and the inside could be the coordinating colours. Then when I saw pam's version (which was stunning) it all just clicked.

I have quite a few projects I "have" to get done, and this is my "want". So when I'm feeling stuck and unmotivated, I'm doing just one block of this to get motivated again. And then putting it aside to finish the ones I have to do. So it will be a while :-)

Blue Chicken,
WOW!! :D Your quilt pattern & the fabric
you have put together is wonderful. I just
love it all. I can just imagine how excited
you must be to get going on it. Have fun.
:D :D :D :D :D :D

Fantastic - keep us posted on your progress. It is going to be stunning.

yeah, but here in the Northern hemisphere, it's the right way up! :lol:

I love this pattern and the fabrics are gorgeous! Is it done yet? :wink: :mrgreen:

LMAO

Of course! I forgot you guys were upside down! ;-)

Hey do compasses there have north at the bottom and south at the top? LOL Guess it depends which way you hold them!

That's going to be absolutely gorgeous!! Love the colors!!

I wouldn't have thought about that color combo, but I really like it! I like the HST technique also.....keep posting, I'm loving it!

Oh I just love that!!! It's gonna be gorgeous! (Where did you find the pattern??)

Blue, I love your colors. You did a great job putting all those colors together, too. Can't wait to see it all finished and up on my wall...you did catch that part about being up on MY wall, didn't you??? :shock:

Love your color combo!! Can't wait to see it finished!!
Is it done yet????? :D :D

That fabric is so pretty - you saved it for just the right project!!!

Wow, Blue, that is beautiful! And I love all those bright colors. 8)

girlfriend, you go right ahead and brag, that is an awesome combination and pattern, woo hoo! Don't you just love it, when both come together, and you get all excited about a project?
Glad things are better for ya, my clackety friend :lol:

Btw, do you have the name of the pattern? AND,
LOL,...are we there yet? :wink: :lol:

Blue's gone to bed! Middle of the night down under. I think the pattern is the same as Pam made 'no diamonds and I think there's a link in her thread - but then you know what thought did - followed a muck cart and thought it was a wedding!

That's going to be awesome! Love the bright colors, Blue.

You'll be done in a week, right? :lol:

the colors are beautiful, i love purple so anything with that color I like. Add some gold and it would be a perfect Mardi Gras quilt.

Wow. OMG, Blue, that is just gorgeous!!! :shock: Wow. I love your fabric choice. Did I say Wow?

It's gorgeous! I love it absolutely stunning!

I do really love these colors. Is the darkest color the dark purple?? It appears to be black which would be great also. I seem to notice that a lot of patterns seem to just pop with the smallest touch of black. Thank you for sharing this work.
