This is my favorite all time quilt that I've ever made. I guess I made it about 3 or 4 years ago while taking an online quilting class. When I sent my quilting teacher a picture of it, she said it was like the sea to her. When I showed it to my Mennonite quilting teacher, she said "Oh Anne, it's the ocean!" I love water, I love the ocean and I LOVE LOVE LOVE teals and blues!
I think my favorite color would have to be a bright teal. And all the colors of the ocean and water.
So you will understand why I am so excited about some fabric that I ordered online and a quilt kit that I ordered! They are the sea.
Well, I guess this one isn't the sea totally, maybe the sea with some beautiful fish in it! Brights, I can't wait to use these in something!!!
These are so pretty, and yes, to me this is very similar to the bargello quilt I made, in color. The Bargello is made from mostly patterned and batiks, not solids.
And these are the fabrics from the quilt kit below! Just scrumptious! I could roll in this fabric and be happy!!!
And the quilt kit. I saw this quilt on blogs a few months ago, and loved it the moment I saw it hanging at the quilt show (in a picture, I didn't attend the quilt show.) So when I saw the quilt kit online, I HAD HAD HAD to have it! I have some extra fabric so I can make it big enough for my bed.
I cannot wait to cut into this fabric, it's going to be soooo much fun!
And that wonderful bargello quilt up yonder? When my quilting teacher's son and his wife had a baby, it was given to their new born baby boy and the ocean kept him all snuggly and warm his very first winter!
Have a blessed Sunday! Quilt happy, Anne
