purple warm wishes
 
1 Attachment(s)
I made a charity quilt two weeks ago and liked it enough that I sort of copied the idea for a quilt for me, except this one is in purple. (The charity quilt was made from a grab bag from my guild, and its focus fabric was a deep wine. I was committed to donating that quilt....as that was the entire purpose of the grab bag...to use up the fabric we have on hand since we are out of storage space.)

Anyway, I just finished the top of this Warm Wishes and wanted to share it. Thanks for looking. I do like it, but I think I won't do two quilts of the same pattern in a row again. Got a bit boring. :) I look forward to starting something different.

Dina, that is a lovely quilt. I am glad you followed through on the other. I see you have a small quilt for the sweet looking inspector. Nice.

That's so pretty! And so's your sweet kitty.

Lovely Warm Wishes!

Such a warm-color quilt - love it. Kitty looks warm too!

Beautiful. WW is such a fast pattern and so striking. I am starting a quilt in purple on Monday. Must be the color of the moment.

QuiltnNan 01-14-2017 07:07 PM

looks great

zozee 01-14-2017 07:24 PM

Ooh, like that in purple too! Your kitty looks like he (?) took over your chair as soon as you got up for the camera. I know what you mean about not wanting to do the same pattern twice in a row.

Very pretty. I too am doing a second quilt with same pattern, different colors, same though. I won't do that again. I am slow going on this one. There is a lot of time and work on these biscuit quilts.

Beautiful quilt. Lovely fabric choices.

Plee1053 01-14-2017 08:16 PM

That's a pretty quilt. Love the purple fabric.

very pretty--hear what you say about same pattern getting boring when done twice in a row--I ran into that with same fabrics for 3 memory quilts! Thank goodness I had to change up the patterns a bit due to fabric limits.

Love your quilt , and the colors . I see your little helper there.

jmoore 01-15-2017 04:31 AM

Great focus fabric for your warm wishes. Nicely done.

quilterpurpledog 01-15-2017 04:42 AM

Nice pattern and purple makes it perfect! Never tire of purple. I hope you enjoy it for a long time.

sinceresissy 01-15-2017 05:41 AM

Looks good. The purple is very striking. It does get boring working on the two quilts of the same pattern. But now it's done and onward!

Homespun 01-15-2017 06:35 AM

Very pretty! Purple my favorite.

Actually, Hot Rod claims the back of the chair, even when I am siting in it. He is a true quilting companion. :) I got out of the chair to take the picture and he just sort of spread out.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone, about my quilt and the quilt companion. He likes the compliments he gets. :)

LOVE the purple and a great way to use the large floral print. Will be looking in our group prints for something large enough to look as great as yours.
Thank you and kitty for the photo

I keep forgetting about the warm wishes patterns. I like purple, one of my favorites.

EmiliasNana 01-15-2017 07:07 AM

I love the Warm Wishes pattern and it is one of the few that I have made more than once. Not my norm either. You did a great job, but I can relate to the boredom too. Glad you were able to push through and make one for yourself too.

Wanabee Quiltin 01-15-2017 07:45 AM

Lovely quilt and so is sweet kitty on your chair. My sweet cat used to sit on mine too, would get irritated when I moved her.

Gail B 01-15-2017 09:08 AM

Lovely Warm Wishes. Good job!

jamsbuying 01-15-2017 09:31 AM

Very nice!!

SandyinZ4 01-15-2017 09:42 AM

Dina and Hot Rod, Thanks for sharing the picture. I have several cat prints and this would be a good quilt to show them off with. Another on my 'to do' list!

annievee 01-15-2017 09:59 AM

Very nice--love the colors

lynnie 01-15-2017 10:21 AM

very pretty!!!

red-warrior 01-15-2017 10:56 AM

Very pretty quilt indeed!

MargeD 01-15-2017 12:07 PM

Great quilt. The Warm Wishes quilt is a great one, but like you, I don't like making the same quilt too many times in a row. I love your quilt advisor. Reminds me of one of the first cats we owned.

ktmo815 01-15-2017 12:56 PM

It's beautiful. Love the purples

Jordan 01-15-2017 01:20 PM

Very pretty quilt and so glad you made one for yourself.

ccthomas 01-15-2017 06:19 PM

Nice warm wishes quilt.

BrendaK 01-15-2017 06:22 PM

Loce it. Thanks for the donation. BrendaK

LindaJ 01-16-2017 04:58 AM

Love the color. Cute protector!

twinkie 01-16-2017 06:28 AM

That is beautiful. I love your fabric.

annette1952 01-16-2017 07:28 AM

It turned out great! I really like the purple fabrics you used too. So pretty! I have always admired this pattern but have yet to make it. Someday!
