That is beautiful painting and the sashing really makes it pop. Would love to see the finish project. Thanks for sharing.

Rosy your friend paints wonderful pictures and she is one smart cookie to give them to you to quilt! This is terrific!

Here is the way it should be. I do have the Christmas balls upside down, but that won't be too hard to rip and reverse lol.
I will quilt it tomorrow. Doxie and I are both Folk Artist. We have worked together for years. She is still painting and I have been immersed in quilting lol.

I like the layout of the revised version also. Thanks for sharing.

Great blocks! IMHO, I would position the blocks so one row (lengthwise) was going one direction, the second row going the opposite direction.

very pretty paintings, what kind of medium did she use to paint on the material.

nannyrick 04-15-2013 11:42 AM

I believe she used DecoAmerica fabric paint and transparent medium.

Just plain love them....beautiful!!!

Just for your information. if you do a little painting, I usually go here where all the artist patterns are and I can pick and choose and its fun to look at all the patterns and get inspired. There are many things that can be incorporated into a quilt.
