What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

I like the applique, but love the quilting lines, and am going to play some more with this project file.

Love the second design, but I am wondering if I can mix up the quilting designs from these two designs. Could be interesting!

I love every design in this project file, so picking a favorite is usually out of the question.

I have almost decided that the second designs was my favourite of these two, but I may change my mind before you see this post.

Interesting, and I love that twisted border.

Interesting blank space for some interesting quilting.

Moved into a house, found a dried up scrap of linoleum in a kitchen draw … and played with the shapes … and I am still playing five years later.

Some of the shapes have survived quite a few mutilations, and I doubt if most of them look anything like the inspirational originals, but I am still enjoying modifying them, and love the designs possibilities of my play times.

I love both of the designs above.

I posted a couple of designs from this project file early this week, and since then have spent time avoiding the sun by playing in virtual dirt, and boy, have the weeds grown.

(Inside and out unfortunately!)

But there is hope!

A couple of the flowering plants I introduced to the garden grow like weeds, and there are some pretty flowers out there, as well as in here. A lot less backbreaking job to add flowers to a virtual garden though, and my hands don’t get dirty..

Mmm … nice one.

I love playing with quilt designs with different shades of background fabrics instead of sashing, and it works especially well when the blocks are assorted shapes.

I like the first design for today …

… but I love the second one!

I really should play with custom settings more often.

I don’t like this design, but I do love it!

This project file is simply a recolouring of the Lovin’ Spoonful blocks, along with a few blocks getting modified slightly.

Love the second one even more!

Love it! I don’t think I could live with the background colour, but like the way it looks.

These colours include favourites pink, purple and green, but when I started this project file I thought i should try a colour combination a bit outside my usual comfort zone. I like all the designs, but still have reservations about the background. However I have seen worse colour combinations in quilts, rooms and other people’s wardrobes.

A bright version of Lovin’ Spoonful, a contrast to the original colours.

Love the second design, and would like it in most colourways I can think of.

Love the third, but I think my favourite of these three is the middle one.

Love this project file and every one of the twenty or so designs in it.

The one above is one of my favourites amongst all the favourites.

I am spending hours of my days at home sorting blocks, and am tempted to have a look at these blocks today, but they have already had their turn.
