Hello Quilt Friends!! Cool summer here, everything is green and verdant.
A couple of years ago I bought yardage and precuts of RSS fabric prints mostly in reds and pinks leaning into neutrals. (And obviously I'm not afraid of red and pink!!) I've used that fabric in different projects and in 3 different quilts. Two of those quilts are finished and the last one is pin basted ready for hand quilting. I also used Kona Cotton solids in purple and navy blue for 2 of the borders in my unfinished quilt. The binding fabric I will use for that quilt I ordered from an Etsy shop and it is Strawberries in Plum. That will repeat the colors in the purple and navy blue borders making the quilt design work as a whole. That's how I choose colors in my projects, they have to work well together, (no one hogging all the attention.) I love the RSS Strawberry print fabric it comes in a lot of different colorways, if I were rich and greedy I would buy some of each!
My finished quilt 1/2 Square Triangles in Barn Raising Formation Medallion with Borders, 54" x 54" is soon to be mailed off as a wedding gift. I use long descriptive names to set my quilts apart because lately my quilts have all had a lot of red and pink and 1/2 square triangle blocks in them.
And it's Independence Day weekend!! Bar-b-ques and vacation!
Have a wonderful weekend, I'll be by to visit.
