off to WI...


I'm off to the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Textiles to teach a two day Double Wedding Ring class... I had to put  a class sample together, to show as I go, and all the ones I had were finsihed!  So here, I have the quilt in parts, that I will take with me, and when I get home, It will be a quilt top!  I used up four orphan blocks as well, in the concave squares... Cute, huh?

Snazzy huh?  My inspiration fabric was this Pink stripe fabric... I had just rcvd a pile of kona solids in all the new shades, and thought they would be nice and perky for this quilt!
Pink Fabric is: Josephine kimberling by blend hope chest 114.101.06


 I'm totally loving this quilt...  It's screams WARM days...  ( you hear that Wisconsin Winter? )
WARM! Not sub zero temps please...

wishful thinking... sigh.
haha

  5. These colors and the placement make my heart sing. It is wonderful. Thank you for the quiltspiration. Getting my very own curved ruler this spring and looking forward to the process of creating an epic piece. My suggestion for the uber cold: a soft, lightweight silk scarf to cover your lower face, you can breath through it and not get frozen skin. Safe Travels!

    I was thinking to myself as I perused 15 Minutes Play last week - I wonder what V is up to? I love that you always inspire with something new - keep warm and have a good class.
