calico rose, quilt completed

Calico Rose
Finishes 96 inches square

Made from a design by Deanna at Wedding Dress Blue.

I changed the star point construction to geese and changed the border to be all 16-patches.

Quilted by Sue DiVarco, using a Tuscany wool batt.

It used many, many 2 inch squares from my bins.
The blue solid is Prairie Sky 855 by Kona.
Thank you Deanna for delightful design.
It is for my sister Beth.

  4. Really beautiful, I enjoy your color choices so much. Your plaid quilts encouraged me to dig into a big box of scraps from a NC shirt factory, purchased probably in the mid 70s, and I have 2 wonderful baby quilt tops as a result. That may be it for me and plaid for a while, but I never would have started without your example, so thank you!

  5. Love this - but then I tend to love almost all of your quilts. You are so productive . . . I feel a bit like a slug just now (it will pass all in good time). Love the addition of the blue - it adds so much.
