Loved the quilt Ranger uses for her Avatar. Not sure if this is the right layout, but would love to know if it's even close..

Even if it isn't exactly like another I would leave it. It is beautiful as you have it.

Hi, Thanks for your response about my "avatar quilt!" I noticed your avatar photo was an iris. I too love irises and wanted to share the quilt I made. First I took a photo of my neighbor's iris garden. Then I painted a 16 x 20 oil from the photo. Then I found a 1 1/2 yd remnant of iris fabric. I made a 18 x 24 panel for the center and painted the irises on that. Just thought you might like to see this. I did a whole slide show on it, if you'd like to send me a regular email address by PM.

Franie, actually I won't be using that EQ5 design with the floral. I have a stripe that I have been trying to place and I think this step design will be great. What do you think of this combo???

Your iris quilt is beautiful! Did you use fabric paints?

I did use fabric paints; they are So So Soft by Americana. Got them on Hofcraft website way cheaper than locally. and yes, you could paint them. I put a pattern down with graphite paper under it and Itrace the design. I love to paint....I can not draw!!

Hi, that is a great looking layout! Have you cut and sewn the pieces ? The colors are gorgeous together!

roseOfsharon 06-07-2010 04:52 PM

Oh my! I just love the iris quilt and your painting is marvelous! Even if you cannot draw, you sure can paint well!

Pam 06-07-2010 08:50 PM

I do stuff with colored pencil on my quilts quite often, have not ventured into paints yet, but I am VERY please with what I have been able to do with the pencils.

ranger 06-08-2010 01:08 AM

Brittany's Stars design seems like it will look great as a quilt. That iris quilt is beautiful....I like the look of the painted irises.

franie 06-08-2010 08:45 AM

can you show some pics of your work with colored pencils?
