Happy Colors

Happy Friday everyone! This week I'm showing off some quilts sent in by Karen P. The fabrics and colors in these are stunning. So bright and saturated.  This first quilt is a simple design to really show off the pretty fabrics and a textured rainbow backing.

The backings Karen found are especially colorful and pretty, I wish I knew what fabric line some of these are from.

This quilt looks more sedate, but in person the orange poppies really pop out. This quilt is probably about 60"x50", but most of the others are very large, 70" square or so.

Another crisp, modern, bright quilt with a fun background. All of these are quilted with a tight, neat stipple that makes them cozy and soft. 

Be sure to click on these pictures and view them full size so you can see the saturated, watercolor fabrics up close. Thank you to Karen for sharing these treasures with CiL!

I'm wrapping up 2 weeks of work so this is a very happy Friday for me. Last break I started working on this bear pattern by Janet Fogg and I'm hoping to make some more progress on it. 

Swimming under a waterfall, the eponymous Fall Creek Falls in Tennessee. Too cold for me!

  3. Very pretty quilts! I am working on that bear too, but slowly. I guess I didn't realize how much applique would be involved!

  4. I see the sign for the falls sometimes, but can't remember exactly where. It looks too cold for me, too! I've never taken the exit. Really pretty quilts and lovely backings.
