This is a "turning twenty" quilt that I made for my daughter. She loves the bright, crazy prints. It was nice because it is fast and easy piecing. I had a friend do the LAQ. She is just starting to do this for other people, and I think she did a good job. I used a peachy color for the quilting, because I didnt think it needed anything to bold. There was already plenty of that! I made her some pilllowcases to match. She loved it!

Lovely! I find it difficult to decide on colors when I want to go bold but you did a great job. Cudos to your friend on the quilting too. No wonder your daughter loves this quilt.

You are so right... plus a couple Kaffe Fassett prints. From a few years ago. I love them too

Stop that!!! there are no stupid questions!!! Ask about anything you aren't sure of, and you will have lots of people jump into help! So.....The more you shop and look for fabric, the more you start to find the prints that you like and gravitate toward.... then you start to take note of who designs them and what fabric companies produce them. Then you can spot them really easily! Probably from 200 feet away! Right now I am liking the fabrics by a designer named Sanae.

oh ok thank you i am new at this i only have been doing quilting for about 7 or 8 months so its like learning how to tie shoes lol

aliaslaceygreen 01-06-2010 07:52 PM

FUN!!!!

Jeannie 01-07-2010 08:40 AM

My kind of quilt. It is stunning!

Nancy in Louisiana 01-07-2010 08:57 AM

You did a fine job picking fabrics out. Those wild prints are my favorites. I don't trust myself yet to pick out 20 different fabrics that will go together. You have every right to be proud. And so does your friend -- keep her around, for sure.

Greendragon6889 01-07-2010 11:08 AM

The kind of quilt I like, bold and beautiful.

Wings 01-07-2010 12:00 PM

What a wonderful quilt - I love it!!! So rich and warm looking. Well done!!! :)

Chele 01-07-2010 01:42 PM

I bet she loved it! Those fabrics are so neat! Great job all around!

Sandra Craig 01-07-2010 04:54 PM

looks just like the colors my GD would like

Mamaskeeto 01-07-2010 04:56 PM

Love your color selection. It's beautiful.

oldswimmer 01-07-2010 05:33 PM

Thanks for the kind words and encouragement everyone! I think I drove the LQS ladies crazy picking out fabric, but they have alot of experience with these bold colors, so they were a BIG help.

springtime 01-07-2010 05:58 PM

Beautiful!! I did a turning 20 with bright colors. Turquoise/ yellow/ browns/ and greens. As soon as I quilt it, I will post it.
That pattern used big pieces, so it can use larger prints and show them off. Your daughter will LOVE it! Great job! :-D

MaryAnna 01-09-2010 04:50 PM

Fabulous job! She'll love the quilt, what great fabric, and what a wonderful job you did piecing it and quilting it!
Kind Regards,
MaryAnna
