My granddaughter loves purple, as do I, so this is the quilt I made for her for her 16th birthday. The pattern is called "Color Falls". I used a permanent marker to make the labels which are on Laurel Bursch fabric labels. One label is for her, the other label gives care directions. What do you think?

The quilt is beautiful and I love your labels,I always think of labels as boring but you changed my thinking...very very nice.

Tickled purple, pink whatever, that is adorable. Love it as I am a purple person also.

redrummy 03-02-2010 07:36 AM

Awesome. I love the idea for the label. That is great. I just kept looking at the quilt in amazement, it is beautiful.

thimblebug6000 03-02-2010 08:28 AM

It's gorgeous & you'll probably have a hard time "sharing" it, as you love purple so much as well.

Ilovemydogs 03-02-2010 08:52 AM

Looks like the perfect quilt to snuggle up in. Good job!

Machel 03-02-2010 09:27 AM

Zephyr 03-02-2010 10:31 AM

That's a really nice quilt. I just made two graduation quilts and your idea about putting the washing instructions on the back is super. I was going to do it on a 3x5 card, but these are boys and they'll never find that card. Thanks for the idea!
