Fall 2012.
Omg. So I started out searching for fabric to make a quilt for my niece. I am soooo attracted to bright happy colors and I absolutely LOVE Moda Marbles. After a trip to Prairie Quilt Shop in Batavia, IL I found my color palette. Now what to do. Wanted something quick and simple. Found the split rail pattern but wasn't loving it. I put the colors on the computer to help give me a visual. That helped!
Couldn't wait to start so I actually began this beauty before I left for Florida. I had to have some sort of progress!
Wasn't long before I had it up on the design wall. I gotta get me one of these walls. Its so much fun to see things come together. My only problem is that I am loving it way too much. Now the guilt. I don't want to give it away.
Does this border material not remind you of jawbreakers?
Ok. So I ended up keeping it after an inner turmoil and my friends giving me crap for even considering giving it away. I can always make another one, right? So I sewed my name and date into it so I wouldn't get weak. Final quilt is called "Taste the Rainbow" Because it reminds me of skittles!
