I'm always amazed at the difference fabric/color can make.
I'm finally learning (after 15 years) to look at the pattern
and not the colors!

Gorgeous quilts.........love, love, love the second one :)

They are both beautiful :D:D:D
It is fun to see the same pattern made up in totally different fabrics.

I actually used cookie cutters and hand stitched them. I have found that if you look around your house you will find many different objects.

That's neat how they look so different. Did you machine quilt your blue/brown one? Are the circles hard to quilt? I have a real need to make a circles quilt and wonder about machine quilting it. thanks for sharing this.
