I've been making some quilt squares out of scraps of fabric lately. I'm no quilter, and these are far from perfect, but I don't care! don't they look pretty together? they make me happy. one day I'll have a giant colorful, random patchwork quilt for my bed.
I'll tell you a secret, the baby sized quilt that appears in my book, is the first quilt I ever made, aside from a tiny, doll sized one. I'm a big believer in making stuff up as I go along, it may not be perfect, but I learn a lot, my project is unique to me, and it's a lot more fun than following directions. (I can't follow patterns anyway.)
These look so pretty! The colours really do look good together :-)
ReplyDeleteSome day i'll make my own too.

So pretty! I'm working on a couple of quilts but you make me want to start another one with the added embroidery of course! =)
ReplyDeleteHere, here! That's how I roll. Jelly roll? No, no. More like rock. Where'd you find your fabrics? Scraps from here and there? Clothing, blankets, etc.? The End.
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics look gorgeous together. I have trouble not foolowing a pattern so would love to just be able to throw it all together like you have!
ReplyDeleteSweet and pretty! Great sense of colors!
