OK, I'm bragging about the Positive Quilt.





This is the fourth, and final, quilt of mine that will appear in Quilty Magazine.  Fons and Porter has decided to discontinue this publication and concentrate to their other brands.  It's not easy to get published and I'm excited about this.  I did have two other quilts rejected by Fons and Porter; getting a rejection email is no fun, but that's life.

goofing

It's raining and I really need to start on the back of the Elephant Quilt.  First, I thought I'd share some quilty inspiration, in case you missed these.

 

Titled:   'Rain' Seattle, WA.  Isn't it great.

Titled:  Kate's Quilt.  I love the simplicity and the modern use of solids.

I love Pinterest.

I'm still working on Erin's Elephant quilt.  It's been pretty slow going.  Life keeps getting in the way.

I have a FQ bundle of Echo by Lotta Jansdotter, that I'm itching to use, but I've held off because the colors really are pretty disjointed, to my eye; and I wanted to use them all.

I saved this quilt on my Quilty Inspiration board:

print gallery quilt

Kati, from From the Blue Chair, did a great job; but she didn't use the whole fabric range.  Don't you love it.?

Then I found this one; it's totally different, but I love how it uses the whole range.  I think this will be my next project:

how about a fun patchwork quilt

Ashley, from Film in the Fridge, is brilliant!  I me, the pinks were discordant, but she's tied everything together.

pins

I did get Swoon block #7 finished, but Bob and I went out to dinner and to the movies before I took a photo.  We saw Red Tails, it was great.  Go see it!

Here are some of my favorite quilty pins this week.

I made something I pinned on Pinterest!!!  Here's the pin, a pillow from anthropologie:

Here's my pillow.


Front and Back, all from scraps!


I love this fabric combo, earlier in the week I made these:

 

All the scraps are left over from this quilt, that's at the long arm quilter's.  
I probably won't have it back unit January.


My apologies, if you read more than one of my blogs, I've re-posted this from the Family blog.
