This is a pretty little wall hanging that I am putting together. It is from a pattern that Terri sent me with a doll quilt exchange last fall. I had some of the fabric it called for and found others that were appropriate for size of flowers and background. It is pretty easy to make and so pretty. Hope the seams go well and it looks good when done. Thanks for looking.

Your quilt is looking beautiful!!!!! don't you just love watercolor quilts? They are so beautiful and quick, well sort of quick. Are you using the Dina Pappas method? I have made many using her method and love each one! Please let us know when you are finished with it so we can oooh and aaahhh :thumbup: :thumbup:

I am not sure what the Dina Pappas method is. :) The pattern is from a House of White Birch booklet called Quilting Watercolor by Number. Very simple technique and so far no problems. Cutting lots of 3.5 inch squares then folding some of them in 1/2 diagonally and placing over others to create the color effect in the Floral Starburst that I am making. I'd be interested in seeing your quilts Alaskasunshine and learning more about her method. :)

Very, very pretty, would look good in my pink bedroom!

Seriously, it looks like you did a great job of picking your fabrics.

Hi Overlander, feel free to look at my quilts just click on my name and look away. Dina's method is using fusable web and then stitching vertical and diagonal. In a nut shell thats how it is done. I think I have some of my watercolors posted...I hope I do. In any event yours is gorgeous!!! :-D
