As I start cleaning up my basement I needed to know what colors are missing from the framed 9 patch blocks so far. I have 31 blocks made and I need 80 for the size quilt I want to make. I knew I had a lot of black and white in it so far. I laid it out light/dark/light/dark but I don't think the final layout will be like this. I can see I need a lot more bright colors in this and a lot more medium tones. I'm sure I'll find some candidates as I start putting away fabrics.
On one of their visits here from TX my sister in law said she loved this table runner so I gave it to her. She loves to decorate her home for the seasons so here we have her Halloween display. Pretty cute!
I agree that more is better when it comes to making a top with lots of different colors. Sometimes I don't think there are enough colors! That table topper is cute all set up with the Halloween items. I guess I need to get my ceramic pumpkin and display it somewhere.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful post of photos today. Your framed 9 patch blocks and I am guessing in my mind which sister in law designed that cute autumn display. Tell her it made smile, so cute. I decorate for the seasons also.

Isn't it lovely when family and friends can share in your quilting projects. The runner has found a great new home and is loved and appreciated, I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteIt's so rewarding when someone really likes something that you've made!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it good to see your beautiful table runner being so artfully used!
ReplyDeleteLove the cuties on the table runner - I never see things like that here, but then we don't celebrate halloween/autumn the same as you.
ReplyDeleteI've been busy sewing bags to sell so not been on tinternet as much lately - enjoy the rest of your week :)
Alice came out to play in your window quilt too!
