Last week was a quilt week for me. Monday was a holiday so we went to the "Quilts of the Netherlands" and then Thursday I went to Quilt Canada, and Friday was the first day of my guild's retreat, an entire weekend of quilting! I was not sure what I was going to bring but on Thursday I bought this kit, Friday night at retreat I cut it out and then Saturday I put it together. Now this weekend my plan is to quilt it. I have 1 on the rack to finish and then I'll add this one. I hope to finish both on Saturday. I think I'm going to quilt it all in circles to add some motion to it but was hoping for your opinions as well. What do you think?

I really liked the colours...I'm a big orange fan.

That is so pretty! It justs hits you with all the color. Good job for a week's work!

Very nice! Orange is my favorite color too!! :)

LeslieFrost 05-31-2011 10:13 AM

Wow! You have been busy! And, you're fast! Orange is not my favorite color, but this is beautiful.

Yes, I think that circles for the quilting -- large ones, I think -- would be great on this.

Circles or waves. Great mod quilt:)

Not bad considering I started sewing at 9:30 am stopped for about few hours to go shopping (It was the mennonite relief sale & show. So we were gone for 2-3 hours) stopped for dinner and was completed the top at 1:30am.

Orange isn't my favorite color either, but I'm reconsidering this. Love your quilt, it's beautiful.

OK NOW...WHY CAN I NOT SEE A PICTURE. THIS HAPPENS TO ME ALOT.
After all that yelling I go back to page 1 and there it is. But I really do frequently not have a pic and everyone else talks about it. Oh Well!!!

Love It! I would do circles too. Show us when done.

I really like that.

quilter68 06-01-2011 05:59 AM

Circles or Baptist Fan would really look good with the straight lines. Nice quilt.

debcavan 06-01-2011 06:40 AM

The orange works really well in this quilt. Wonderful

joym 06-01-2011 06:49 AM

I generally don't like orange BUT I love it in this quilt. I love the color combination. Wonderful color choices. Circle quilting will look qreat. Thanks for sharing.

nice - I think circles would look nice - probably larger ones.

ShirlinAZ 06-01-2011 07:31 AM

Nice quilt! Definitely circles.

rona thickpenny 06-01-2011 11:27 AM

Very different, and I think the circles will add to the quilts very nicely.

Rock Lady 06-01-2011 03:13 PM

I think the quilt is beautiful. All the colors go well together and none of them are overdone. You did a wonderful job -- and so fast, too.

ube quilting 06-01-2011 03:17 PM

A great contemporary look. Circles would be great. I did it on a similar quilt and it worked. Enjoy!

karenkrafts 06-01-2011 03:51 PM
