Hmmmm, we are supposed to post about a favorite or special quilt. That is really hard for me... to pick a favorite quilt?!? That's like saying pick your
favorite star in the sky, right?
I have many favorites and to be honest,
who makes a quilt they don't love
and WANT to make, right?
I guess one of my favorite quilts is my "Poppies" wall quilt. It was really fun to make- just kinda looked at other art floral quilts and did my own version . I used fusible applique and did lots of thread "painting".
It is my only real art quilt.
It hangs in my family room, and is
my husband's favorite quilt.
I used it for a long time for my blog header photo.
It was a true stash quilt as all the fabrics were
from my scrap bin or my stash.
I love it when you can do that, don't you??

ReplyDeleteWow! You just looked at a few and designed that gorgeous piece yourself? Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE your quilt! When traveling in Italy a couple years ago in early May the A-1 was literally alive with red poppies! When we rode the train there were field upon field of them!
ReplyDeleteI was actually looking to buy some today to add to my new "Tuscan Garden" but could not... so for now I will relish yours...
Thanks!
