Both quilts are wonderful. Your choice of patterns was perfect for the reds and white. Did you design the patterns yourself? Great idea for two color quilt.

You did a wonderful job with that fabric. I'm not a big fan of RED, but you sure changed my out look on Red. Thank you for sharing.

Really beautiful quilts.

I'm planning a blue and white quilt and a black and white quilt. I've already started buying the FQ's for each. Now, ladies, when planning a quilt for someone else, be sure you already have a design or pattern picked out BEFORE you even start gathering materials. I have looked at dozens of quilt patterns and none seemed right. Boy, I'm I glad I saw your red ones. The second quilt would be perfect. I believe I can use your idea (if its okay) for both quilts. It makes use of the variety of FQs I have and are just what my daughter and son-in-law like. The other quilt is for my oldest DGG and will be graphic enough for him. Thank you so much for sharing!!

Really pretty, both of them!

topstitch 10-11-2012 02:51 AM

Congratulations on a job well done. I am a long arm quilter that will quilt charity quilts for free, so I do lots of them. So many of the ones I see are poorly contructed of poor quality fabric. Does that happen everywhere?

sew_Tracy 10-11-2012 02:56 AM

Those are so cute. I love red and white.

indymta 10-11-2012 03:31 AM

Love both quilts.

rj.neihart 10-11-2012 04:42 AM

Very nice. I like the second one the best!

born2quilt 10-11-2012 05:21 AM

Yes, I'm afraid it happens here also.

JoanneS 10-11-2012 07:08 AM

Mmmmmmmm - both are oh, so pretty. I love the red, white and pink bricks. Simple, but so very effective.

lollygagging 10-11-2012 08:15 AM

I love the crispness of red and white. Your designs are simple enough to allow the fabrics to stand on their own. Great designs and quilting choices on both. Thanks for sharing.

Elfi2 10-11-2012 02:42 PM

Simple but really lovely with the fabric pattern and colour combination.

maryellen2u 10-11-2012 03:09 PM
