This is only the second quilt I have completed from start to finish and I only started learning how to quilt in April of this year. All three pics are just about the same, but I thought I would post them all. I still have one quilt I need to quilt and bind, one to decide how to finish then quilt, one to complete the piecing, and a baby quilt to start and have completed by the first week of January to mail to Canada. I guess I know what I will be doing over the holidays.

Great looking quilt Liz!

My brother helped pick the colors, cause I just don't really see how they fit together, but he is color blind and see in hues. He is great at painting. My Mom told me the only thing wrong with my quilt was that I was trying to be perfect and that is impossible, but I told her I could try.

wvdek 12-11-2009 08:34 PM

Wow, that is awsome!

Here is an interesting fact. During World War II (or maybe I, I can never remember :oops: ) they would send soldiers who were color blind up in balloons or post them on a high ridge because they could see where the enemy had trenches and dug in. It's because they weren't fooled by the camouflage but could see where the enemy was by the different hues in the surroundings.
