I have been looking at the Fresh Modern Quilts on Flickr and trying to find a way to make a quilt that combines both my colors, and that FRESHNESS. I decided to use the lightest values in my stash in conjunction with their more saturated sisters. The other consideration was to make a piece that was simpler and less repetitive...not in blocks.
And now for a gratuitous fish picture...They are all out enjoying the warm and sunny day.
I am so inspired by your talent and creativity! Thank you for sharing. The colors look beautiful on my screen! I love the purple area and how the quilting changes directions.
ReplyDeleteVery bright indeed! Just what we need after this winter.
ReplyDeleteLove those colors. Sorbet is perfect.
ReplyDeleteWOW look at the little fishie explosion...so cute.
Will your sister Brooke be putting her quilt up for sale?
ReplyDeleteShe should!
I, too, like the simpler quilts on Flickr. Definitely less is more! This quilt is close to that and I'm sure it must be hard to get your brain to "simplify" but I think you're getting there.
ReplyDeleteSimply lovely!
ReplyDeleteSo very pleasing!
ReplyDeleteI like the play of the soft colors with the straight stitching - goes well together. Go girl!

The quilt almost looks like the fish swimming! Thought about doing a pond with the gold fish in it?
ReplyDeleteI was without internet service for a week! REally missed checking on what you were doing! Lighting is nasty stuff....
