Scrappy Green and Tan Lap Quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
I made this quilt some time ago and just got it quilted last week. This was made using left overs from three or four quilts I had made. I arranged it like one of the trip around the world type quilts called streaks of lightening.

There is just something about tan and black quilts that is so elegant. This is really lovely.

very pretty nice job barb!

Barb: Sorry just saw the heading "Green and Tan". On my monitor it looks black and tan but I love green especially with what looks to me like pink as accent. What ever the colors the color movement across the quilt is great.

The colors are dark green and tans, the other color is rust. Maybe my monitor is off, I hope not because I post a lot of pictures and on my screen they seem to be pretty true to the real fabric colors.

This was made out of leftovers? It looks like you shopped for these fabrics on purpose. It's great!

I really like how you placed your colour values. Beautifully done.

Barb_MO 03-20-2013 06:47 PM

One year I was commissioned to make three quilt using tans, green and gold. I ended up with lot of left overs from those quilts plus a few rust fabrics. So yes, I guess you could say I shopped for these fabrics on purpose.
