I just really, really like this quilt. I am looking forward to starting it. There is just something about a red and green quilt that makes my heart beat faster. If you are interested in the pattern I got it at Honey Bee Fabrics.
This is my high tech way of keeping track of the reds I have selected.......that herringbone may not stay now that I see it here......hmmmm.
The pattern had some good suggestions. One of them is to keep the patterns in a ring binder, now why have I never thought of that before? Now I will not lose them or have them scattered all over the place!
The patterns are not that big, 10 1/2" so very doable in a short amount of time. I like cut away applique because it is ONE fabric, not a lot of decisions to make and sometimes that is a good thing.
What are you working on this weekend?

That is an ambitious project you have started but it's like eating an elephant - one bite/block at a time will get you there. It is beautiful! Enjoy the journey with your friend!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Kelly, that is going to be a beautiful quilt! Big project to start and love that it is going to be red and green.
ReplyDeleteI cleaned my sewing room! All day yesterday and a bit this morning. No sewing this weekend for me.
Really looking forward to seeing your progress on this quilt - I know it will be stunning! I'm working on a quilt for a special (guy) friend - started out thinking it would be columns of crosswise strips, all shirtings/plaids, and it's turning into a medallion quilt. Happy sewing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so wonderful. Can't resist the reds!!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt will be gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is going to be beautiful. I love the reds you've chosen, especially the dot.
ReplyDeleteI may finally start a small appliqué quilt now that you've inspired me. My DH bought me the book Beautiful Botanicals a few years back and I've been wanting to start a project from it.
what a fabulous project!!
ReplyDeleteI love doing paper cut applique.
The reds are great - keep the herringbone as a renegade fabric, lol.
happy friday
This is an amazing quilt. I love red and green together. I'm going to watch you make this.....I can't even imagine trying to do this!
ReplyDeleteOh this is going to be just gorgeous. The reds are great!
ReplyDeleteLooks like your ready to start!! It's fabulous seeing all those reds together! This is going to be an amazing project!! And fun for us to follow!!
ReplyDeleteI really like that quilt too, and I love doing cut away applique. This is going to be a fun quilt to watch you start. I like the fabrics you have so far, the herringbone might be able to stay in, it's a good dark.
ReplyDeleteI am working on my 3rd block of this quilt and love it I can't get enough of red and white quilts lately. The blocks are "simple to do", but still take me several evenings of stitching to get one done. Enjoy and I will enjoy watching your progress.
ReplyDeleteI am sooooooo impressed! You are my quilting idol!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a lot of red fabric. I think I own 6. It's going to be smashing.
ReplyDeleteCame over from Rachael's bluemountaindaisy blog to visit yours. I love appliqué and your red & green quilt is going to be stunning. Gorgeous pattern. Also liked your diary quilts.
