Red and Green Hostas
 

This is the Fire Island Hosta pattern. I bought it planning on making the green one, but when I was picking fabric, the red kept calling to me. I could not decide between them, so I made both.

I used the paper as a template and did each section at a time - in both colors. Got kind of tedious so it got put on hold for several months while I worked on other projects. Once I had all the pieces done, putting them all together was pretty easy and fast. Glad these two are ready for quilting so I can move on to something new.

Wow - you made two! They look great.

Oh i was just drooling over that one in a catalog. beautiful. both.

Wow, 2 of them! Beautiful!

wow....they look hard to make......but beautiful

Beautiful. That's the kind of hosta I need. I have spent many $ on hosta and many, many hours separating and replanting only for it to become deer food.

Cathy, they are beautiful and I am so glad that you finished them. BrendaK

Wow - not one, but two! Love them both, but am a little more drawn to the green. Just beautiful.

Wow! Two? Fabulous!!

Gorgeous! I love both of them - Thank you for sharing!

This is such a lovely design, and you did it justice with both beautiful quilts.

Beautilly done...

I took a non-quilter friend to the local quilt show this year. She was in love with this quilt. It really makes a statement.

Both are spectacular.

I am still amazed at how different a pattern looks when made up in different fabrics.

Those simply are breathtakingly beautiful.

Wow, I love both of them. They are gorgeous.

Both came out beautifully.

While both are fantastic...the green calls to me.

Wow! They look great! I hope you're going to post pics when you get them quilted.
