Happy Friday! Three finished quilts to show this week courtesy of Tina C. It's still hot as blazes in Texas, and I know a lot of the rest of the country is in the same boat. I can't wait for us to start cooling down in the Fall.
This first quilt has amazing tiny piecing. It's a Jen Kingwell pattern, "Long Time Gone." Most of the fabrics are shot cottons or peppered cottons and they are sooo soft.
I took a bunch of close-up pictures with my hand so you can appreciate the precise piecing. I also really love the rich autumnal colors.
These next two quilts are in a very different but equally pretty color palette of corals.
This quilt is made from blocks in the "What is Love" Quilt-A-Long earlier this year. They are all interesting, modern blocks.
I thought this broken heart block was especially interesting.
This last quilt proved very hard to photograph. As you can see, I gave up on the idea of catching the sun in the right position (and preferably not 100 degrees) to take photos outside and just did my best inside.
There is definitely more contrast in real life and the coral solid with the floral is a nice soft combination.
Sundae showing off her yoga moves. I tried some pilates the other day and got sore in muscles I didn't know I had...

Tina!! These are so fabulous!! The variety makes my heart happy :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible donation, Tina! Thanks for sharing these lovely quilts, Kat.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty quilts! Hard to pick a favorite, which is how I like it. The yoga matches my t-shirt of cat yoga moves, and looks like stressful for human muscles! You go, Sundae!
ReplyDeleteSo many beauties that Tina made. I can't work with such small pieces. I'm so glad that quilts are still coming in to you for distribution to the hospitals.
ReplyDeleteSundae looks like yoga is not a problem & is so relaxing that it makes falling asleep so easy. Hugs!
The piecing on the small is fantastic! I want Sundae to be my yoga teacher.
