just for fun i decided to whip together these 4 squares to motivate me to finish the units still lagging so far--the purple strippies and the green triangles. it never ceases to amaze me what beauty scraps can create. it's the color that does the work, not the prints at all. in fact, if done right, the prints should become invisible. if you don't believe it, just squint. me, i'm mesmerized and tantalized by color. from the crayola box to paintbox to fabric to fireworks. many artistic gurus have encouraged and taught me to develop my love of color into a real working, love relationship that continues to feed my creativity. thank you one and all. *** a most blessed Christmas to those who celebrate, too....."and the beautiful red bird on Christmas shall sing, for the manger at Bethlehem cradles a King"
Grace, love the colors and the pattern. Can't wait to see the finished product. Have a wonderful, blessed Christmas. Hope 2012 is a good year for you. Take care.
ReplyDeleteOh, these are beautiful, Grace. Nice job.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you this Christmas weekend!
Your colours are so gorgeous! I cannot wait to see how your quilt comes together...very exciting!
ReplyDeleteMy colors are purple and green too but opposite from yours. I do like the black and red now that I've seen what others have done but I'm a renegade and just had to use "my" colors. Good job!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you chose!
ReplyDeleteThose are great colors together. I like seeing what people who chose their own colors have done.
ReplyDeleteGreat colors! It does feel good to sew a "real" block together doesn't it...like you I still have work to do on prior steps but jumped forward this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing colors, can't wait to see this quilt go together.
ReplyDeleteWow this is colour infusion! awesome......*~*
ReplyDeleteOh, looking brilliant! I'm still on clue 5 and I'm only making half quantities :)
