Another one of my subdued color projects! :D These blocks have been so much fun. Very liberating and easy! Here's the tutorial I used: http://bumblebeans.blogspot.com/2009...anna-play.html

Some wild stuff, huh?

Yeah, Chele, next time you might try to use more color.... :lol: :lol: I have studied that and it really does look like it would be fun! I have a few scraps I could use. Thanks for the link.

Chele, I don't want to hi-jack your thread - but I love that blog where you got that tutorial (and yours as well!). Do you know of any other good quilting blogs? I love blogs - but haven't found many quilting ones that are updated regularly.

Chele!!! Thank you sooooo much!! That's exactly what I was looking for!!! The colors and patterns on those blogs. UGH! They're just so beautiful! I'm so un-imaginably grateful. Thank you so much!

This is really a great quilt! Love the colors!

Love the colors, Chele. For future reference, white, black and brown are colors, too! :lol: :lol: :lol: Seriously, I like the quilt. :D

Jim's Gem 10-27-2009 03:33 PM

I don't think it's bright enough. Maybe some vivid purples or something!!!
Seriously, that's a fun quilt!!!

sewjoyce 10-27-2009 04:38 PM

Oh my -- love all the color!! How did you keep from getting dizzy when you worked on it? :lol: :lol:

littlehud 10-27-2009 05:23 PM

I love the bright vibrant colors. And those blocks would be fun to do.

pookie ookie 10-27-2009 06:03 PM

Love the colors. I alter the rail fence all the time. A fave.

I think your quilt is kin to a pillowcase I just finished (with 3 *orange* Valori Wells fabrics).

Be sure to check out the Gee's Bend style patterns. They're coming out soon.

The examples show straight edges and binding but they could be made wonkier like the real deal.

Really neat. Somebody will want to body-surf on it.

Tippy 10-29-2009 08:42 AM

all I can say is... ACID GREEN!!! yep.. that's the only thing I could think to add. Maybe you could use that to bind it!!
I LOVE this as I am a devotee of pastels also... ideas, ideas.. thanks for sharing.

Marcia 10-29-2009 09:21 AM

Chele--GREAT QUILT!!! You did an awesome job and it looks like so much fun. It is hard to believe that the same person who made the quilt in your avatar is the same person who made this quilt---you are definitely versatile!!

Thanks for the links to the blogs too---I am going to enjoy them.

Iluv2quilt 10-29-2009 09:30 AM

I really like the feel of that, very uplifting!! I can see how it could be liberating.

quilter1962 10-29-2009 01:49 PM

Wow Chele

Love these blocks - however I have one complaint the colours are a little dull LOL :wink:

Great job !!!!

:shock: I had to take off my glasses!!! LOL! Just kidding chele... I think it is a very fun quilt. I bet it was hard to go wavy after trying all these years to sew straight quarter inches.

Nice thinking to ues up your brights all at once. :-)

wvdek 10-29-2009 09:24 PM

Wow. Pass my sunglasses, please! Wow that is colorful and what a great way to use scraps.

Bevanger 10-30-2009 06:44 AM
