Not all blizzards are blue: WINTER GAMES FABRICS from Nestlings By Robin

 When I first designed Winter Games,
I went in with that old taught color
theory that Winter, cold, snow, 
ice, etc. all equated to a 
blue and white color palette.

That doesn't have to be true!

Entering into this quilt along
with you, 10 years after 
making the original, I realized how
much my fabric choices 
and color palette 
have changed as I studied
what was truly pleasing to me!

new version in lovely

taupe and gray and mustard.

Winter Games QAL: SAVE THE DATE from Nestlings By Robin

Who is ready for some 
BLIZZARD QUILTING?!! 

www.nestlingsbyrobin.com

Anyone else have wonderful memories 
of watching the Olympics every year?
I think the most exciting one for me was 
1980 because we lived near
Albany, NY then and the excitement was 
amazing living so close to
​where it was all happening:)
SO, this year I will be hosting a QAL 
during the 2 weeks of the Winter Olympics.  
We will be sewing on my quilt, 
Winter Games.
This quilt was designed 
years and years ago 
but never made it to pattern stage
until now:)

As with previous QALs, 
all the information will ...
